Hi! We've recently updated our testing environment to acs 4.9. As there's a new RBAC model, I'm trying to use it. Unfortunately I'm unable to "activate" it. I've tried to set dynamic.apichecker.enabled to true, but this is prohibited via UI. Changing the respective database entry doesn't help ei

Hi, since your lvm shows duplicate pv's I assume the filter in your lvm.conf isn't set correct. This could also explain the listing of (xenserver unrelated) vg_srv1/lv_* due to nested lvm. btw. I'ld rather use something like vhd-util scan -f -m "VHD-*" -l VG_XenStorage-3e26eaad-befd-fb47-82ad- b8

Hi, there has been a bug report and a fix was submitted. It's been fixed at least in 4.9 (you need to destroy your existing consoleproxy if you're running an older one). If you want to "hotfix" it, just login to your consoleproxy find ajaxviewer.js somewhere in /usr/local/cloud and add c

Hi, TL;DR; you can't. XenServer 6.5 just doesn't support RBD backends. There are projects to integrate RBD-SR into XenServer 7, I don't know if projects like https://github.com/rposudnevskiy/RBDSR will make it into XenServer upstream. A while ago, I closed that gap by using iSCSI in between. The
