    • RE: New guest tools ISO for Linux and FreeBSD. Can you help with the tests?

      Tested on Fedora 33 and CentOS 8 Stream (can't test live migration in my homelab)

      • Fedora 33 : nope at all 😞

        It failed because of chkconfig requirements and legacy init system unit => no more supported in
        very recent version of systemd (here is 246 for Fedora). The officiel RPM from Fedora xe-guest- utilities-latest doesn't have these issues.

      • CentOS 8 Stream : way better than Fedora

        • IP addresses reporting : OK

    • RE: XCP-ng Windows PV Drivers 8.2.2

      Tested on Windows 10 1903 (French locale as usual), seems good too and easier than ever.
      I let you know if something bad happens.

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.2 updates announcements and testing

      No problem here, RHEL 8 support for guest tools works as expected (tested on the last RHEL 8.1 release), good job 👌

    • RE: XCP-ng 8.0.0 Beta now available!

      Just updated my homelab server from XCP-ng 7.6 to XCP-ng 8.0 Beta, so far so good. I also tested the new experimental UEFI mode with Windows VM, seems good too.

      I also tested the new XOA deployment through the Web interface of my host, perfect !

      We will see during the following week how it goes 😉

      Niiicce 😍 Especially the new quick XOA deployment, that is more turnkey than ever 😀
      I will migrate to XCP-ng 8.0 in my lab this weekend and start provide some tests.

    • RE: Introduce yourself!

      I am a computer science student, passionate about server systems administration and virtualization. I arrived here because Xen intrigues me, I want to discover other things than KVM / VMware / Hyper-V, curiosity you know 😉
      I'm more a KVM/VMware guy, i'm looking for something else for my first homelab virtualization server, and I discover XCP-ng last week on Reddit. Everything works as I wish, despite some concepts to understand, the product suits me for my homelab, especially XOA. And because the recent decisions from Citrix for XS...

    • RE: Self service systems - how to build templates?

      @davx8342 There is a Packer plugin for XCP-ng : https://github.com/ddelnano/packer-plugin-xenserver

      I use it in my homelab, I have some manifests in public on my GitHub profile if you want some examples : https://github.com/ruskofd/xcp-ng-images

    • RE: cloud-init ssh key works but not user config

      Regarding to logs on the machine where the network configuration is commented, there is this error : 2021-06-20 21:22:59,657 - util.py[WARNING]: Getting data from <class 'cloudinit.sources.DataSourceNoCloud.DataSourceNoCloudNet'> failed

      No other errors, but it seems sufficient to broke the provisionning.

      Commented :

      Empty :

      Seems consistent imo.

    • RE: cloud-init ssh key works but not user config

      I can confirm this behavior :

      • empty/generic network config (i.e basic DHCP) : OK
      • commented : not OK

    • Memory usage and Xen hypervisor

      Hello everyone !

      I have a question about memory in general with XCP-ng (pure curiosity).

      I have my homelab host with 64GB of RAM, so the Dom0 memory is about 4.2GB, all fine (and it's correct according calculation provided by Citrix : https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-hypervisor/memory-usage.html)

      But when I looked in Xen Orchestra memory stats graphs, it indicate me that 5.28 GB is used on the host (with no vm running). Using the xe CLI, I got the same information (using the commands provided on the link above).

      Is there some kind of "overhead" or memory reservation by the Xen hypervisor itself under the hood (or something else) ? I can't find any information about this.

      IIRC ESXi has a more or less similar behavior where it reserve some memory for it's own operations, dunno if it's the same here with XS/XCP-ng.

    • RE: Intel NUC: Nested Virtualization

      Nested virt is quiet random and not viable sometimes. I already had case where nested virt won't work on a recent i7 and worked wonderful on old CPU

    • RE: New guest tools ISO for Linux and FreeBSD. Can you help with the tests?

      @stormi For now, only a sysvinit script is available right ? If needed for systemd, can we re-use the unit from the Fedora packagers ? Looks pretty simple :

      [Unit]
      Description=Linux Guest Agent
      ConditionVirtualization=xen
      
      [Service]
      ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/sysctl net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_notify=1
      ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/xe-linux-distribution /var/cache/xe-linux-distribution
      ExecStart=/usr/sbin/xe-daemon
      
      [Install]
      WantedBy=multi-user.target

    • RE: Terraform

      I didn't try the provider, but there is an option cloud_network_config, you should be able to pass network config as in Xen Orchestra UI using cloud-init.
