@Ajmind-0 Care to share the shutdown script used to shutdown the VMs and the host?

@olivierlambert
Thanks. I was able to confirm the pool uuid.

@Ajmind-0
Thanks for the script.

How does one enumerate the pool uuid for a given pool? I see what I believe to be the pool uuid right below the title of the pool in the XOA Pool page but I'd like to be sure it is indeed the correct pool uuid. I searched for the correct command but failed. xe something? xe pool-param-get what?

@Ajmind-0
Well, well, I switched to the snmp connection method and it worked just fine. Um...

Thank you for your pointer.

Strange. I'm using UPSTYPE pcnet and the corresponding DEVICE ipaddr:username:password statement. I'm using the exact syntax on all of our FreeBSD servers and they're communicating with the APC management card.

What is your iptables configuration like?

I need to allow traffic between apcupsd on the host and the APC management card. When iptables is disabled, the host can communicate with the management card. However, when iptables is active, communications no longer occur.

I have tried to insert a rule as follows:

ACCEPT   tcp   192.168.xxx.xxx/32   anywhere   tcp dpt:apcupsd state NEW

as the next to last rule in the RH-Firewall-1-INPUT chain. (The IP address belongs to the APC management card.) The rule doesn't allow packets to/from apcupsd.

I am no iptables expert (we use FreeBSD) and I am not familiar with how the iptables rules are structured on the xcp-ng host. It appears to be specially tailored to xcp-ng.

# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
RH-Firewall-1-INPUT  all  --  anywhere             anywhere            

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
RH-Firewall-1-INPUT  all  --  anywhere             anywhere            

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain RH-Firewall-1-INPUT (2 references)
target     prot opt source               destination

Suggestions?
