@anthoineb or someone from the @team-storage, you might want to take a look (IDK if it's a known problem internally)

RE: backup mail report says INTERRUPTED but it's not ?
@Pilow Thanks, it's promising but we'll wait for more runs on your side
If it's that, at least it's not a biggie in the end! -
RE: adding a new VIF in XO doesn't UP the the interface on Debian13
Hi,
Adding a VIF is like plugging "live" a new network card in a physical system. It's still up to your operating system to handle it. XCP-ng doesn't know what's inside a VM, it's up to the VM OS to do what it has to do (like on a regular physical hardware system).

RE: VM Pool To Pool Migration over VPN
Hi!
@team-storage will correct me but on top of my head:
- Live migration needs to continue to write locally while the VM runs while copying the blocks on destination. This takes some ressources and time, limiting the transfer speed
- Migration in general is limited by the Dom0 expert speed via tapdisk, which is a bottleneck. In real life, this allowed us to have migrations without disrupting day-to-day operations (not taking all IOPS), which is good for stability but not on purpose

- Copy with compression is faster because all blocks are compressed so you are sending more data for the same time (therefore, faster) at the cost of more CPU cycles. Which in general is worth it, as you've seen.

Hi!
Thanks for the feedback. Can you be more specific? This might be helpful if others would have the same issue

RE: How to Setup IPMI in XO
Indeed, there's no login, we just call ipmitool from the Dom0. I'm not aware of any write access from there.

Not entirely strange, a driver version can make the difference.

RE: Intel Core Ultra iGPU passthrough
I'm not sure Intel iGPU passthrough can work. Let me ping @teddyastie maybe

RE: Test results for Dell Poweredge R770 with NVMe drives
That's interesting
Is your firmware fully up to date on the NIC?
