      Thank you. I thought the registration was only useful for the trial/license management 👍

    • RE: Migration from VMware

      Danp Thank you very much ! I had not seen this article 🙂

      How comes it does not install the latest version when deploying ?

    • RE: Migration from VMware

      XOA : Current version: 5.92.1 - XOA build: 20240401 installed from the host with quick deploy.
      XPC-ng : 8.2.1

      Nothing fancy here.

    • Migration from VMware

      I am experimenting with migrating from a Managed Bare Metal infrastructure at OVH (https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/managed-bare-metal/) to XCP-ng.

      Using the VMware importer in XenOrchestra, I can see all the VMs on the Managed Bare Metal infrastructure. When I click import, the process start and, after a few second (even with a big VM > 500GB), stops with success according to the Tasks, the VM appears in the VM list but there is no disk.
      The log seems to say everything is fine.

      What have I done wrong ?

      I also try with a small VM (less than 4GB) and it doesn't work better.

    • Missing information in XOA 5.64 blog post

      Hi,

      In https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xen-orchestra-5-64/ blog post, it says : "Note that it's a single use URL and that it's only valid for a short period of time."

      What is a "short period of time" ?

    • RE: XCP-ng Windows PV Drivers 8.2.2

      The drivers install fine on Windows 2022 21H2 (Build 20348.169).
      Like previous versions, the system hangs as soon as the VIF state changes.
