Awesome accomplishment! Congratulations!

@dbeato Update on this. Basically I needed to run the Updates on the XCP-ng hosts even though they were on 8.1 and upgraded 5 packages. Once I did that since I had an Updated XOA system, then I reboot the servers and XOA and now backups are running!

@olivierlambert Will do! Just having that error of

So far working great!

Hi,

See https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/4735

Has this issue been resolved yet? I am still seeing this issue. Should an update to Xen Orchestra work for this?

@dbeato it just works!

Good, that's what I need to review again as this morning did not want to work.

@dbeato glad that it works now... I actually don't know an automated way to find all the little things that can cause the drivers to fail. It's mostly detective work

Yeah, that is why I am reporting here One thing I would say though, it doesn't seem to do the paste from the host as XenServer used to. Not sure if it is supposed to be that way.

See below my results

@harrise I have the same experience.

Actually mine said Management Agent installed, then I also needed to do Cause A( steps on the troubleshooting guide here
https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/wiki/Troubleshooting#windows-management-agent--windows-pv-tools

@harrise I have the same experience.

So my Windows Server 2016 VMs had previously the XenServer drivers. After removal, reboot, install of XCP-NG tools and completes successfully and reboot. The VM still shows the VM without any tools running and the XV PV storage device under Device Management shows an Exclamation sign.

I am testing today in my lab and tomorrow in production if things go well. I am testing Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 10 1803 and Windows 10 1809

Hi all, I am Daniel Beato and have been using XenServer and most recently XCP-NG since 2010 also been using Xen Orchestra since 2012 so it is good to see the great development of the products.
