      You must configure the license for the client on the license server:

      On the windows 11 client in the Nvidia control panel you have to specify the license server:

    • Backup VM with active USB Dongle

      I have a virtual machine on XCP-NG with a USB Dongle. Unfortunately, I cannot make a backup with snapshot as long as the USB dongle is connected via passthrough. Is there a solution with XCP-NG or do I have to work with an AnywhereUSB (USB over IP)? In this case, the USB is connected via the network.

      Installation instructions XCP-NG (RC1) Nvidia M10 | A16 GPU

      1. install XCP-NG 8.3 RC1
      2. download XenServer Driver Nvidia 17.1 (NVIDIA-GRID-XenServer-8-550.54.16-550.54.15-551.78)
      3. unzip driver and copy host driver (NVIDIA-vGPU-xenserver-8-550.54.16.x86_64.iso) I used winscp to copy the driver to the tmp directory.
      4. download XenServer iso file (https://www.xenserver.com/downloads | XenServer8_2024-06-03.iso)
      5. copy the file (vgpu-7.4.13-1.xs8.x86_64.rpm) in the packages directory ! Do not use CitrixHypervisor-8.2.0-install-cd file vgpu-7.4.8-1.x86_64
      6. unpack file vgpu-7.4.13-1.xs8.x86_64
      7. copy the file \usr\lib64\xen\bin\vgpu (size 129KB) to \usr\lib64\xen\bin\ on your XCP-NG host (chmod 755)
      8. (putty) /tmp/ xe-install-supplemental-pack NVIDIA-vGPU-xenserver-8-550.54.16.x86_64.iso
      9. reboot
      10. install guest driver on the VM client (551.78_grid_win10_win11_server2022_dch_64bit_international.exe)
      11. token file from Nvidia (C:\Program Files\Nvidia Corporation\vGPU Licensing\ClientConfigToken*.tok)

      Nvidia drivers 17.2 and 17.3 do not work yet (Guest driver crashes)
      I will stay tuned and inform you about new findings

      I have completed the migration step from Vmware to XCP-NG. I am using Nvidia M10 and Nvidia A16. I had to invest some time to get the Nvidia cards up and running. What I can reveal is that so far they do not work with xcp-ng release candidate 1

      I first migrated the VMs with the Vin Chin backup software. However, you have to manually customize each machine anyway, which is why the XAO Vmware migration worked best for me.

      The problems with the XOA migration tool comes from an XCP-NG patch.
