Xen Orchestra new design
-
At least what we already got in XO. What do you mean by "split"?
-
So in XenCenter if you have a snapshot and you want to create a new snapshot, you would select "Revert to Snapshot" with the "Take a snapshot of the VM's current state and revert" enabled.
What this does is branch out the VM so you can work on it at different points, without having to undo a bunch of changes if you were to just make a single snap.
Because you can go back and forth, and see what "broke the VM"
-
So it's basically the possibility to take a snapshot of a snapshot?
-
-
When you apply an prior checkpoint in Hyper-V you are given the option to snapshot the current state if you so desire. That looks like this to me.
-
@olivier Take a look at Vultr as well! There new UI is very nice, and mobile responsive too!
-
Okay so it could be 2 snapshots. This shouldn't be by default, be an interesting option indeed.
-
I know I'm going to get crusified for this, but I really like the design and layout of ESXi's vSphere.
List down the left of the device/server/VM you are looking at.. and the properties of that in the main window on the right.

Hi guys, if there is any VEEAM users (or other popular VM backup products), I'll be happy to have feedback for improving our current VM backup workflow.
See https://github.com/vatesfr/xo-web/issues/999
I mean, it terms of UI, having something easier to understand and manage.
-
I checked out the new interface yesterday. Here are some of my initial observations --
- It's damn fast!
- Unable to filter by host using the dropdown next to "Sort by"
- Didn't seem intuitive way to switch to pool view, storage view, etc
- New VM screen seems incomplete. Is it still a WIP?
- Encountered a few "page not found" issues
- Translation issue on New Backup page (Aperçu)
-
Guys, it's not even beta ready
Could you wait a bit? Issues like non-existing page and broken filters are perfectly normal at this stage. Also a lot of WIP
Also the home view will have a switch to VM/host/pool view
edit: let's say Friday it will be more complete

Apparently that doesn't stop us from trying out the new shiny widgets.

@BRRABill Good catch
Yes and I saw the last episode Monday, thus why I used this expression Anyway, it was mainly a tech rework (ditched Angular 1 for ReactJS/Redux/ReactSelect). Some base components start to be shipped, so the UI will evolve more quickly now!
-
@travisdh1 I have no problem with that
Just reporting some issues will be a bit useless before with finished some basic things! -

-
This is how popular XO has become!!
-
@olivier I seem to recall you stating that you liked constructive feedback.
-
@Danp Constructive mean it brings something (ideas/bugs) we don't get before ^^ If we go public beta now, we'll have hundreds of reports about missing views/known non-finished things. That's all I would say by "constructive"
-
Added some stuff this week, should feel a bit more complete on feature side.
Next week will be about:
- finishing the home view (pool/host search, switching to host mode)
- finishing the VM creation feature (with extra stuff)
- validating/replugin ACLs
- initial work on advanced stats view (heatmap/compare graphs)
- VDI attach/add on VM view, with grab reordering
- using pagination/filter for all tables
So enough to release a beta, let's say, Friday (17th).
