FOSDEM will take place this weekend, and this year, exceptionally, the event will be 100% online.
We are of course sad not to be able to share a beer with you directly on the spot, but it is also a very good opportunity for our non-European users to be able to exchange with us thanks to the chat that will be available during all the weekend (Mainly during the day in the CET timezone).

Our booth will be available on this link: https://stands.fosdem.org/stands/xcp-ng/
Our official blogpost announcement: https://xcp-ng.org/blog/2021/02/04/fosdem-2021/

EDIT - last minute addition: we will also have the pleasure of having some folks of the Xen project present on our booth too to exchange with all of you! So if you have question on the Xen Project it's the perfect opportunity.

See you soon!

Xen Orchestra Lite is an ongoing project around XCP-ng and Xen Orchestra. it doesn't require you to host any virtual appliance and will allow you to do basic management of your host directly from the browser of your choice.

Pierre, the lead developer of the project wrote an extensive devblog on the project you can read here

This topic is dedicated to discussion ans questions around this project.

Hello everyone,

As you (most certainly) all know, a lot of countries in the world are living in difficult times due to the pandemic of COVID-19.

We are sharing some news about how we are handling the situation here.

Stay safe!

Well, this is an unexpected reaction... I didn't saw that coming for sure.

Good news, the vote are closed and the Public Center for Social Welfare's case study is first as we hoped!

Thank you everyone!

As we mentioned in our last release, we are currently doing a small study about our users. This questionnaire, which will only take a few minutes, will allow us to build the future of our solutions more in line with your uses and needs.

If you didn't done it yet, now it's the time as the questionnaire will only be available for a few more days.

In the next few months Vates and XCP-ng team will attend (and sponsor) two different event

• Pass the salt - virtual conference is a French conference event about cyber security. It's free to attend for everyone and this year, Olivier will be one of the speaker on the following topic: Tackling security issues in virtualization

• Xen Developer & Design Summit is the yearly reunion of all the people involved in the Xen Project. Since we launched XCP-ng we are sponsoring this event and our developer teams are attending it. We will keep you in touch about the overall orientation of the Xen Project after this event.

Bobby, our new team member in the XCP-ng team explored the device emulation in Xen Hypervisor and wrote a Devblog about that topic and how we leveraged the device emulation hypercall interface of the Xen hypervisor in our implementation of UEFI Secure Boot for HVM guests.

@s-pam Yes indeed, this link is currently broken because of the new support platform. Thanks for the feedback, our team will fix it as soon as possible.

@stormi Yep, I fixed my answer, sorry

@s-pam
Hello, I'm sorry about this issue.

open a support ticket directly from Xen Orchestra is temporarily broken because we migrated our support platform.

Please, open it directly from your account: https://help.vates.fr/kb/en-us/8/15

We want to involve the users community very early in the design of XO6 and have begun designing an initial questionnaire to submit to you to identify your expectations and current issues - We will later set up a tester program to continue to exchange throughout the process with users who are interested.

It's a bit early to share more details, but stay tuned on the December release for XO, we have things in the pipe.

@mrchip Backup NG is now the standard backup section. We made a rework on all backup features a while ago and we kept legacy backup and backup New Generation (NG) during the transition period.

So, on old video you can have both, but the thing you see about backup NG should be valid for the current "backup" section of your appliance.
