@john-c As I mentioned in the release notes, @dinhngtu told me (and tested) that if Secure Boot is enforced, then Bitlocker doesn't fail on unexpected firmware changes. Maybe worth giving it a try?

@olivierlambert said in Feedback in regards to upcoming XO update: I'm not sure to get what you said. Right now, we have a specific partnership with 2CRSi, having access to their engineers who design the case and integrate the components inside. This helps us to give exclusive insight on the hardware, and on their side, providing XCP-ng pre-installed. I'm not against having other partners, but you can imagine that Dell or HPE are taking more time to provide XCP-ng pre-installed on it. I never heard of NovaTech before, I'll be happy to work with them if they want to work with us I have dropped a message to Novatech with a link to your website letting them know about you. They're currently closed for today but when their people come in tomorrow they'll get my message, be ready during that day onwards for possible contact from them! Your already got a French municipality as a customer providing their servers with your Virtualisation software stack. Well if you manage to partner with Novatech you'll also have the capacity to gain MBDA along with Thales as customers through them! They're a solutions producer and provider partnering with them would allow both of you to benefit, as well as incorporate XCP-ng, XOA and/or XOSTOR into the Novatech solutions. Each of the solutions provided by Novatech is bespoke to a specific customer, built using off the shelf commercial components. Pay attention to their video "Our Story #3 About Us" as they provide worry free computing to the companies working to change the world we live in. All of their people enable their customers to do remarkable things. What's more worry free than not having to worry about, a business's product policy of their closed source proprietary software? Partnering with them would enable their products and solutions to have Vates VMS as a component to them and reduce the worries of the Novatech customers!

@olivierlambert @Marc-pezin Thank you very much for sorting this out!

Hi, I am currently looking for exactly this function. If there is a solution here, I am very interested.

You should be able to reach them by emailing b9fc50de97da4bcd9714854e0c5a8059.protect@withheldforprivacy.com, which is the registrant email give by NameCheap.

@pdonias said in Xen Orchestra & XO Lite PWA Manifest: Thank you @john-c! We need to make a few changes first, we'll take care of your PR right after that As a result of taking such a long time to get around to reviewing and merging my PR. The base for my contribution got really out of sync so I had to discard the changes and rebase. This meant the PR got closed a new one was needed. The Old PR with branch was really out of sync and with several lots of conflicts. https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/7445 So please do this new one during today or tomorrow so that the rebasing isn't needed again! MrGrymReaper opened this pull request in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed xo-web Initial PWA manifest for Xen Orchestra 6 #7445

Yes, we are considering OpenELA for many reasons. It's backed by big companies with a common goal, so it's probably less risky than other choices (but Alma is also an interesting choice anyway). As usual, it will be loosely based too: it's relatively impossible to "transform" a regular distro to XCP-ng, but it is very helpful to re-use many packages as possible for reducing the burden of maintaining them all

We are very well aware about all of this. But we are not a distro entirely based on RHEL at all (again, all the network, kernel, storage and compute plus many other things are NOT coming from RHEL). On a personal point of view, I'm a strong proponent of Copyleft licenses and the greater good, in the original spirit of free software. To me, there's a real moral contract between the software editors and the users. You can read my detailed opinion in this blog post: https://virtualize.sh/blog/the-moral-contract/ Due to those personal opinions, I'm really unhappy with RedHat move (and behind Alma and Rocky), but this is NOT clashing with our position for the next major release. So no, we won't be directly disrupted by this move.

The issue is within pools: XCP-ng isn't meant to have pool members down (for various reasons), so the scenario is only limited to pools with one host only

Happy to do baby steps If / when you guys add some kind of "register" option to get a count on things I'd add my instance(s), as long as it doesn't break the existing install / upgrade scripts at least! Generally I have no issues with just clicking it away since I'm the only one that sees it. If it were a viable option sometime in the future, those would be my ideal "features". I've really enjoyed using XO coming from ESXi / vCenter at work and formerly running my home lab. Your vision of support is similar to Nutanix's which is partially why we went their route for our server overhaul and I think it's excellent. I'm hoping by the time we're due for a refresh the hyper-converged offering is fleshed out and production ready. Though I would miss my integrated firmware upgrades.
