@borzel Thanks for suggesting that. I've been trying to figure out how to verify what is presently set, and what it should be before changing things around.

The install doesn't seem to complain. I think sr-list outputs a list of the local Storage Repositories. All look in order to me, though none are shown as the 'default SR'.

#xe sr-list

I guess the last one is the default SR, as I opted to allow thin provisioning in the installer (it says this forces the SR to be created as an ext partition), and as you can see above, it is the only one formatted as ext.

Maybe I'm not doing this right (?)

@olivierlambert Thank you! If I can't run XOA by then, I fear I will be your keenest tester candidate!

Good idea re the proxy. I disabled my IDS but it made no difference. I don't see any log entries showing web requests being blocked/sent to nowhere.

This is the exact output, failure must be at the last line

# bash -c "$(curl -s http://xoa.io/deploy)"

Welcome to the XOA auto-deploy script!

Network settings:
IP address? [dhcp] 

Your XOA will be started using DHCP

Importing XOA VM...
# xe vm-disk-list *
Error: No matching VMs found
#

On a fresh install of xcp-ng 7.6.0, I am trying to setup XOA as the first guest-

bash -c "$(curl -s http://xoa.io/deploy)"

At first this failed silently after 10s or so no command line response at all. This turned out to be my DNS resolver not being enabled for the VLAN I created for this new xcp-ng host.

With that fixed, the script now runs. It also confirms "Your XOA will be started using DHCP", also Importing XOA VM... but then, returns to the prompt silently after a few minutes.

If I do xe-disk-vmlist, or look in the console for a shiny new XOA guest VM, there's nothing there...

I am guessing this is caused by connectivity, but can't imagine where.

During installation, I configured the xcp-ng host to connect to the correct VLAN ID where the USB installer dialogue prompted me. Verfied this as the host was assigned the correct static IP, hostname, DNS and NTP settings by the router. Local DNS is verified working (now), and I also setup (and checked) the firewall rules to allow outbound http and https traffic for all hosts.

Does xcp-ng or the the XOA deploy script require special connectivity to work?
