    • RE: Base board serial number in Windows VM

      @olivierlambert Thank you for your swift reply!

      I think that I just stumbled across this moments after I posted my question, and have been 'playing' with these settings, it looks like I need to have the boot firmware set to bios, to allow the selection of the check box 'Copy host BIOS strings to VM', which causes a new problem as the disk I've exported from Hyper-V needs UEFI to boot 😞

      Anyway thanks so much for pointing this out, it gives me a better understanding.

    • Base board serial number in Windows VM

      Hello, I am new to XCP-NG recently migrated from Hyper-V and hoping for some help with regards to using/getting the base board (motherboard) serial number in a Windows VM;
      For example, if I run the command below from a windows PC 'cmd prompt' it returns correctly the information requested in the get

      wmic baseboard get product,manufacturer,version,serialnumber
      

      But if I do this from inside a XCP-ng Windows VM, it's unable to get any information, with a message 'No Instance Available'

      I was wondering if there is something I can do to allow this information to pass through?

      And the reason for this strange requirement is for a specific software that I need to run, as it licenses against the motherboard serial number.
      Any help will be very much appreciated, TIA.
