    • Racked today, entire hosting solution based on Vates stack

      c913d143-7df8-4c52-92b8-256b8bd9fb6c-image.png

      Hey all,

      We are proud of our new setup, full XCPng hosting solution we racked in a datacenter today.
      This is the production node, tomorrow i'll post the replica node !

      XCPng 8.3, HPE hardware obviously, and we are preparing full automation of clients by API (from switch vlans to firewall public IP, and automatic VM deployment).

      This needs a sticker "Vates Inside" 😃 #vent

    • TAGS in BACKUP/RESTORE

      Hi,

      Smart backups are wonderful to manage smart selection of VMs to be backuped.

      When we browse the RESTORE section, would be cool to get the TAGs back visually, and possibility to filter them
      I'd like to get "all VMs restorable with this particular TAG" type of filter, hope i'm clear.

      Perhaps something to add to XO6 ?

    • Veeam backup with XCP NG

      just to #brag

      b0ccd690-052c-47c9-8150-7ef40323cb01-{ECF9C24A-7E0C-44C7-BE07-D310A00DE8D0}.png

      Deploy of worker is okay (one big rocky linux with default settings 6vcpu, 6Gb RAM, 100Gb vdi)

      first backup is fine, with decent speed ! (to a xcp hosted S3 minio)

      will keep testing

    • RE: Cloudbase-init on Windows

      I did stick to version: 1 in my working configuration

      01998ae9-bb3f-4a3c-b3f6-b1d34ae23704-image.png

      Had to rename my "Ethernet 2" nic name to Ethernet2 without the space

      You have to put the exact template nic name for this to work.

    • RE: log_fs_usage / /var/log directory on pool master filling up constantly

      @MajorP93 throw in multiple garbage collections during snap/desnap of backups on a XOSTOR SR, and these SR scans really get in the way

    • LTR cosmetics in UI

      Could we have a way to know wich backup is part of LTR ?
      In veeam B&R, when doing LTR/GFS, there is a letter like W(weekly) M(monthly) Y(yearly)to signal the fact in the UI
      dcb3c947-ffa1-4cd1-b9ea-0575ecde900a-image.png

      That's pure cosmectics indeed, but practical.

      @Bastien-Nollet 100% of our backup jobs are done by proxy
      we offload that of main XOA that is purely for administration/management

    • RE: Racked today, entire hosting solution based on Vates stack

      @nikade still early dev but here is what is actually working
      3e876fc7-84b5-400e-878c-4caa8f583007-image.png

      • defining a tenant VLAN, ip subnet is calculated with vlan
      • creating interfaces & VIP carp in netgate 8300 max cluster
      • creating bandwith limiters & default rules for the tenant
      • adding vlan to the switches clusters
      • creating the XCP networks on production pool in xoa
      • pushing documentation of new tenant to netbox

      4 clicks ! 🙂

      work in progress : dhcp server/openvpn server by tenant, outbound nat dedicated IP of available pool per tenant

      9577f7f8-ff68-47c0-8092-5ff2217ae3a0-image.png

      and XO like interface for resellers to manage their clients (this is a global admin view, all internal, clients, and resellers available)
      pushing VMs in their reserved vlan
      start/stopping vms
      view only on their backup logs (not possible with XOA ACLs/self service resources without being an admin)
      reseller can manage its own tenant and its clients tenants, firewall rules are made so that the reseller can access all its client tenants (if he wants to put up its own monitoring for exemple, or mutualised services for its clients)

      work in progress : replicate XOA self-service like options, but with custom granularity. VMs deployement with pulumi is quite finished, need to better manage the available templates to each client/reseller
      their will be a global admin view for us, reseller view for reseller tenant+its clients tenants, and client view on its own tenant

      spinning up a tenant with zero-to-ping in less than 5 minutes is the goal !

    • RE: Racked today, entire hosting solution based on Vates stack

      @olivierlambert here is the replica node, on a 10km distant datacenter (two ways 10Gb network between the two nodes)

      c13caccb-7b9e-4712-b1cd-e5241c2dbf09-image.png
      smaller setup here, just to host backup copies of production node and replica/DR VMs.

      the whole setup consist of 7 VMS Enterprise hosts
      4f0440cf-a467-4b4f-b2ae-21d92b09cfc2-image.png
      Netgate 8300 max firewalls top of rack.

      we are a MSP (and Vates partner 😛 Tier2 soon to be Tier4 !) providing full hosting or hybrid onprem/oncloud to our clients.
      some other services like web hosting with Plesk platform, Veeam Cloud Connect, security/firewalling services, centralised monitoring with Centreon and as soon as we manage to connect onprem XCP to our cloud xoproxies, full replica solution of onprem XCP servers.

      on the bare metal, XCP 8.3, value added with full automation of tenant creation/administration/documentation with diverse APIs (check CRM for clients tagged to be admin of their tenant, get VLANs from there, create them in XCP pools/switchs/pfsense firewalls, create firewall rules and limiters, create openvpn server, spin up VMs in client tenant, automatic netbox documentation on top of xoa plugin, enjoy !)

      we are on pre-production and should be on the market in november, currently migrating OVH VMs to these servers.

      VATES stack is the best solution to be fully integrated in our vision of providing VMs and services to clients in an efficient way.

      we left vmware, had ESXs hosted in OVH datacenters in France, but they were 10 000km and 250ms away from our end users.

      for those who wonder, we are located at Reunion Island, indian ocean, french overseas territory.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing

      @gduperrey we had the XOA update alert, upgraded to XOA 6.1.0

      but no sign of XCP hosts updates ?
      da38c4a3-539e-483d-ac5b-93d60360d287-image.png

      When patches are available, it usually pops up on its own, is there something to do on cli now ?

      EDIT : my bad, we had a DNS resolution problem... I now see a bunch of updates available...

    • RE: XO logs to external syslog

      @Forza I didn't try, as my default Graylog Input was UDP and worked with the hosts...

      But guys, that was it. In TCP mode, it's working. Rapidly set up a TCP input, and voila.
