On the Pool > Advanced tab you can select a backup network so if you created a backup network for a specific NIC you could set it there

RE: High Fan Speed Issue on Lenovo ThinkSystem Servers
@RIX_IT I tried kernel-alt before rolling back the uefi and it didn't help. Also tried the new Xen beta stormi posted (4.19 was it?) in case something was added but that didn't fix it either.
Thanks for trying the new Lenovo fw - I saw it come out and was going to test when I had time but now I don't need to!

RE: High Fan Speed Issue on Lenovo ThinkSystem Servers
@RIX_IT I rolled my XCC and UEFI back to last May and the fans finally quieted down.
BMC Version
2.10 (Build ID: KAX318R)
UEFI Version
1.41 (Build ID: KAE110K)I noticed when the fans spun up the XCC page was showing multiple DIMMs temp as NA and when I checked
ipmitool sensor
in the XCPNG terminal the DIMM # Temp was also 0 when the fans were up. I'm assuming the old kernel XCPNG runs is causing some havoc with the UEFI Lenovo has on these servers and is preventing that sensor from being read so XCC freaks out and spins the fans up because it assumes the temp on that sensor is really high. No idea why the old XCC/UEFI seem to work though.

RE: High Fan Speed Issue on Lenovo ThinkSystem Servers
@bleader My older UEFI fix didn't work long as the fans were spun up again this morning. The servers are nice and quiet when booting to AlmaLinux or like RIX_IT mentioned Windows Server so could this be an issue with Kernal 4.19 on XCP not playing well with new EPYC chipsets?
-
RE: High Fan Speed Issue on Lenovo ThinkSystem Servers
@bleader yeah I'm not sure how the OS could affect that either and certainly haven't seen that in the past...very odd.
I am on 8.3 beta 2. I haven't tested with 8.2

RE: High Fan Speed Issue on Lenovo ThinkSystem Servers
Let me know if you figure this out, I've been fighting with this issue for the last couple days as well. We have SR635v3 servers with AMD EPYC 9354P processors. After GRUB the fans spin down, and the kernel begins to load, once I see efi: EFI_MEMMAP is not enabled the fans spin back up.
In the interim the fix has been to roll back UEFI firmware back to 1.43 which loses some microcode updates but at least our fans aren't screaming at 16k RPM in an office environment.

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀
Our main pool upgraded with no issues with the ISO. Same as the above posters though, master doesn't ask for network config but other hosts in the pool do...thankfully all the bonds and networking came up without issue on them.
Will attempt updating our other locations after hours but I don't foresee any problems

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀
Not sure if this is a known issue, I couldn't find it on Github but maybe I was looking in the wrong spot. Is anyone else's network Bond speeds 0? I thought I had seen a fix a month ago for this in a release but now I can't find that changelog

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 betas and RCs feedback 🚀
Same here (ticket is in).
Anyone having issues with NFS SR performance too? Since the update my VMs are transferring about 140MB/s vs before the update we were seeing speeds around 440MB/s.
I'm using "dd if=/dev/zero of=tmp bs=1G oflag=dsync count=1" to test, if I SSH onto the host I can get full speed to the NFS mount but from within a VM it is much slower, this means backups are also crawling since XOA can't read the VHD very quickly.
iSCSI performance seems unaffected.

RE: Import from VMware fails after upgrade to XOA 5.91
Thank you @florent for all your help! We got the VM to import now, I will try the other failed VM outside business hours but I expect it will work now as well!

RE: Import from VMware fails after upgrade to XOA 5.91
Hi, I tried after the patch applied but it still failed. The task progress didn't seem to hang so I thought it would complete but in the end it failed and removed the VM from XOA.

RE: Import from VMware fails after upgrade to XOA 5.91
I started experiencing this exact same error after upgrading to 5.91 yesterday. It seems to affect one of my VMs that has 2 VMDK disks, the first (OS) disk copies over successfully, the 2nd (data) disk fails.
I've tried making a new VMDK and copying my data over, then destroying the old one in case there was a problem with that file but it still hangs around 50% then the task fails.
