    • RE: Date format on web interface: Only US format available?

      @acomav We will actually propose to change the date and time format in XO6 settings, so you would be able to choose between :

      • YYYY-MM-DD
      • MM/DD/YYYY
      • DD/MM/YYYY
        and 12h or 24h time format.
        Hopefully in one of the next 3 months !
        I hope that will answer your need, otherwise let me know !

    • RE: When the XCPNG host restart, it restarts running directly, instead of being in maintenance mode

      @oliv77 said:

      Hi,

      XOA version:
      xo-server 5.193.1
      xo-web-premium 5.191.0

      We've noticed on our production XOA server that when we put an XCPNG host in a pool into maintenance mode, we reboot it and then it reconnects to its pool but is no longer in maintenance mode.
      Is it possible to configure the XCPNG hosts so that they automatically return to maintenance mode after a reboot?

      Regards,

      Oliv77

      Hi @oliv77, XO 6.7 - latest - adds this option in REST API and next month we should have the available action (Disable host and evacuate VM) in XO6 !

      Ah sorry I read it too quickly. This panel is only there in some occasions, but I see the point of only displaying it when we click on a relevant element. Feedback for you @julienxovates

      While on the topic of the tree-view panel.
      Have you noticed that the indentation changes if there is a chevron indicating that there are VMs on a host? Making it so that the hosts no longer are alinged vertically

      Hi @jr-m4, it took some time but we corrected the identation in 6.7 (latest) 🙂

    • RE: XO Lite - network management "coming soon"

      We prioritized Network creation in Xen Orchestra as they are mostly Pool-level objects (supposedly with multiple hosts), but we will rework on XO-Lite soon, so you could perform all basic actions as well from XO-Lite.

      Here is a small usability suggestion. In the Resources dashboard, in Pool view and Host view, positions of CPU and RAM are swapped. I occasionally get a brain freeze when switching between Host and Pool dashboard.

      Right, thanks! We'll change this !

      @johnnezero
      To add one more info on top of Mathieu's post : ACL (XO5 only) and RBAC (in REST API + XO6 soon) are completely separate, so better use RBAC as it gives much more flexibility !
      Interesting plugin by the way !!! 👏

      With a snapshot attached to a VM, it is reported to use 0% of 100GB

      And if I remove the snaphot

      And that seems to be more accurate

      Hi @ph7,
      The VDI storage used space with snapshots has been fixed in XO 6.5 !

      Slow booting on Debian 13 VM created from a template

      I recently tried cloning a VM from a template (created from a full install of Debian 13). What was noticed was that the system takes forever to boot when the VM is created from XO-6. The issue does not happen in XO-5. The VM seems to hang at the TianoCore boot screen Hang.png.

      What I noticed is that when the VM is cloned with XO-6 the boot order somehow changes to Network boot as the first option

      BootOrder.png

      This does not happen (change of boot order) if the VM is cloned from XO-5 and there is no boot delay. The boot process seems to wait for more than 2 minutes before it fails network boot and then proceeds normally to boot from the Hard drive

      Thanks

      Hi @escape222,
      For info boot order issue has been resolved in XO 6.5 !

    • RE: Too many snapshots

      @henri9813 said:

      Hello,

      I see also this behavior which is "new" since few weeks.

      Previously, when a backup start:

      • it stake a snapshot ( if there another one before, it delete it ).
      • it upload the snapshot as a backup
      • it coalesce the backup on the remote.
      • end of the game.

      Now, the old snapshots are not deleted anymore which can lead easily to some disk full.

      Even with a retention of 1, the problem is present.

      I observe this only in Backup job, not DR/CR job.

      I just updated my XO to latest version, i will see if the issue is fixed.

      Hi @henri9813 ,
      Issue should be resolved in 6.5.x, can you confirm on your side ?
      Thanks!

    • RE: Continuous replication auto start

      Hi @tonyp90, strange that this happened on your backup host as it is not supposed to, since we prevent VMs to auto-start when Incremental Replication target host is rebooted (see https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/xo5/incremental_replication).
      Which XO version are you running ? Do you have a license so you could open a support ticket ?
