Congratulations to everyone, impressive work!
I didn't expect ZFS and Ceph support so soon, nice!

OK thanks, so I better should wait a bit before I try anything?

Hi, is the "raw-device-plugin" branch already working?
https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp-ng-xapi-storage/tree/feat/raw-device-plugin

I just upgraded to 8.0 and wanted to try it now and found out, that the latest released package is v1.0.2 and is missing the raw-device.

Hi, just one question to clarify:
does it mean I could map an untouched/unmodified LUN to a VM?
because I have a usecase where it is very important that the (very small) LUN is not modified as it is used as communication device between the storage system and the guest.
That would be great!
As soon as this is available I will do some testing!

@stormi yes and I totally understand that ... I just thought at first, it is so old, there must be something new if CentOS 7.5 is new ... but no

Any chance to get a newer lsblk that supports json output?
Would be great for plugins and would make parsing output much easier.

Currently installed on XCP-ng 8 beta: util-linux-2.23.2-52.el7_5.1.x86_64

(something later than v2.27?)
https://git.devuan.org/CenturionDan/util-linux/commit/4a102a4871fdb415f4de5af9ffb7a2fb8926b5d1

... ah forget it, I see, CentOS is using the old versions since long time ...

My experience with "XOA Quick Deploy"

It failed.

Because I need to use a proxy, I opened an issue here:
https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/issues/193

cocoon created this issue in xcp-ng/xcp

open XOA Quick Deploy with Proxy #193

Thanks for your hard work!
Just did my first upgrade with the ISO from XCP-NG 7.6 (VirtualBox 6.08 VM). Upgrade went without a problem.

My ext4 datastore was detached after the upgrade and could not be attached, because the "sm-additional-drivers" are not installed by default (as was written in your WHAT'S NEW section).
After "yum install sm-additional-drivers" and a toolstack restart it was working again.
Also installing the container package with "yum install xscontainer" went without problems.

I did import a coreos.vhd with XCP-NG Center 8, converted the VM from HVM to PV with XCP-NG Center and I could start it.
I can confirm the problem with suspending the VM, I get the same error (xenopsd End_of_file).
