How to Setup XCP-NG Guest Utilities for Windows & Linux

Thanks Tom! This tutorial let me rectify my issues!

Thanks a lot for this AMAZING video !!! can you please do a video on PCI pass through ?

xe-guest-utilities is no longer in the repositories for 22.04

Thanks.

Are there any XCP-NG Guest Utilities for Windows server 2000 OS? I am currently running a series of tests on retro Windows Operating Systems and would reaquire the guest utilities for Windows Server 2000.

Thank you for this great video.
Can you help me with something? I will get a new server soon and I plan on putting XCP-NG on it but I was wondering how does XCP-NG work with UPSs? I have APC Smart UPS (Back-UPS RS 900G) and it is connected by USB cable to physical Linux server acting as a master with APC UPS Daemon running and other servers are connected to this master one as slaves and they get informed when main power is out and UPS is running from the batteries so they can start graceful shutdown. I wish to connect XCP-NG as a slave to that master Linux server so it will also get power status information and when main power is out it will initiate graceful shutdown of VMs and after all VMs are down it will shutdown it self.
Or, if this is not possible (XCP-NG don't support APC UPS or whatever reason) can I resolve this problem by connecting VMs as slaves to master Linux server? They will gracefully shutdown them self like other server do, but then XCP-NG server will continue running and it will abruptly shut down when the batteries in the UPS run out...

P.S.
Bonus question: Do you know how to setup UPS APC and daemon so that server knows when main power is restored? Now it doesn't know this because server thinks that main power never went out because UPS keeps generating voltage even when all server are powered off so their PSUs can't detect power outage and power returns... Only if UPS batteries runs out and UPS shuts down then when power comes back UPS and all servers will automatically power up.

Sorry for my bad English, I hope you will understand me.

Thanks for this video! I needed to hear this sir.

Strange that xcpng can’t shut down via bios hook where it does not need guest agent

I sadly gave up on XCP-NG late last year as I was no longer able to create new VMs. I tried installs on other servers and ended up with the same ata2 exception Emask ... action 0x6 frozen error during the VM boot. Proxmox and ESXi ran fine on the boxes. Ended up going back to ESXi.

"All the testing by Citrix QA Team" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I give XCP-NG credit, it being the only Hypervisor to as advertised pass through an iGPU with out of the box success.

Is xpc still under active maintenance? I recently ended up somewhere with last update from 2020

interesting - why does uefi lock the resolution in windows?

Really enjoy these Quick Hit but with All The Needed Depth and Detail videos that you are getting out here lately. Lots of help!! Thanks Tom!!

Tom, thank you for this. I have scratched my head more than once trying to figure our why the resolution was locked. Now I know! Thanks!
