@McHenry Oh, I didn't see you are doing continuous replication.
This tab is only to restore VM from a remote

@McHenry Hi

You can click on the "Refresh backup list" to see your backups

@Affonso Hi !
Are you using XCP-ng 8.2.1 or 8.3 ?
I can't find the 24.03 iso, is this the paid version ?

@bvivi57 Ah yes, good catch, I didn't think of that !

@bvivi57 Hum, weird.

From what i see, i can't tell you why is not working.

For the disk part, I did:

  disk {
    sr_id      = data.xenorchestra_sr.local_storage.id
    name_label = var.name
    size       = var.disk_size * 1024 * 1024 * 1024
  }

You can check my old project (I used it a couple month ago, so it should work correctly), and check if you can find some differences: https://git.ataxya.net/ataxya/Tsunami

I'll try to find some time to test your file

@bvivi57 Hi !

What's the value of var.xoa_template in your file ?

@KPS I don't know why my brain has decided to index all the xcp-ng forum, so when I read your post, I immediately remember the post with the clonezilla issue

@KPS This ?

@someone2b Hi !

You'll have more information here: https://vates.tech/blog/introducing-vates-virtualization-management-stack/

@SethNY Hi !

I'm working since a few weeks to have a VyOS packer build working with the XCP-ng packer provider. The link you provided is only for qemu build, so it needs some work to be able to adapt it to XCP-ng.
I'll tell you when I have something working, but for now, I have some small difficulty to resolve (install the tools, and other small things).

If you want to use terraform, you can do this:

• Prepare a VM manually, with the bare minimum
• Convert the VM to a template.
• And use this template with terraform

I don't know if cloudinit is supported out of the box or if you need to activate some things (I'm not here yet), but if you have something working, I'll think it will be helpful for the community

@john-c The plugin I wrote send all data available to XO, and XO is doing the parsing and display.
As we only work currently with the Mona model, we are not concerned by liquid cooling and other things like this.
To have some history, I recommend using the Netdata plugin and plug it into a Prometheus to have long-term data. For now, XO is displaying real-time value directly from the BMC, with no history.
If you have some values you think are nice to have (in fact, the PSU status was not my idea, but feedback from my community), don't hesitate to tell us !
It's still a work in progress, nothing is set in stone

@manilx Try:

xe host-call-plugin host-uuid=<uuid> plugin=smartctl.py fn=information
xe host-call-plugin host-uuid=<uuid>  plugin=smartctl.py fn=health

We changed the name between my test and the real plugin on xcp-ng

@manilx Hi !
I wrote a XAPI plugin for smartctl a while ago. You can use it like this:

# Get all the info
[18:06 Chouffe plugins]# xe host-call-plugin host-uuid=8b80bcc2-d31c-4f7d-85a7-e921f67c4ec5  plugin=smartctl.py fn=check_smartctl

@jkissane Hi !
Did you select a template in the XO's UI ?

@AtaxyaNetwork And for the blog post:
https://blog.ataxya.net/add-xen-driver-to-ome-dell-open-manage-enterprise/

@456Q I sent you the link in private chat

@456Q No problem !
Let me export the .vhd and upload it somewhere. I'll give you the link in private, with the password of the appliance

I already start to write the blog post

@456Q I'll do a blog post since it will be a little long to explain here

TLDR: Dell remove entirely the Xen driver, which is needed to be able to use the disk and the network. Had to install an other SUSE (yeah, OME is an SLES) to get the driver and insert it in the OME VM via a rescue box

@456Q

It's working !

Let me write a small tutorial to explain how i make it boot, i'll post it ASAP.
Or if you prefer, I can send the .vhd with the patch directly

@Danp
Thanks, at least I have something to do during my insomnia
@456Q I'll keep you posted !
