Enhancements

Users must be able to say: "Nice enhancement, I'm eager to test it"

• [REST API] PATCH /rest/v0/vdis/{id} to update a VDI's name, description and size (PR #9945)
• [Pool] XO now reconnects to a surviving pool member when the master becomes unreachable (e.g. HA promoted a new master after the old one died), instead of staying stuck on the dead master, including after an XO restart (PR #10016)
• [XO6/VIF] Add possibility to create VIF from network tab in VM page (PR #9677)

• [XO6/VM] Group VM power actions in a new "Change state" submenu and isolate the Delete action (PR #10036)
• [OpenMetrics] Add an estimated per-VM power consumption metric (xcp_vm_power_consumption_watts), splitting each host's IPMI power across its running VMs proportionally to CPU load (PR #10031)
• [XO6/VM] Add possibility to export a VM (PR #9989)
• [Rolling Pool Update/Reboot] Re-check that each host can still be evacuated right before evacuating it, to fail early with an explicit error (PR #10097)
• [XO6/VM] Add "New VM" button on Host view (PR #10048)
• [xo-server] expose more metrics when doing a memory dump (PR #10041)

Bug fixes

Users must be able to say: "I had this issue, happy to know it's fixed"

• [Backup/Remotes] Listing backup repositories is no longer slowed down by an unreachable one: a broken repository is now served from cache and retried in the background instead of timing out on every refresh (PR #10025)
• [XO6] Fix negative "other" value in backup repository dashboard (PR #10044)
• [Backups] Fix missing transfer size (PR #10106)
• [Host/dashboard] Switch CPU and RAM panels order to match Pool dashboard layout (PR #10059)

• [Plugins/Perf-alert] Update URL generation to support V6 routing (PR #10054)
• [Rolling Pool Update/Reboot] Temporarily disable VMs auto power on during the run: unexpected VM starts on rebooted hosts could break the remaining host evacuations (HOST_NOT_ENOUGH_FREE_MEMORY) (PR #10104)
• [Backups] Fix failed status on successful retry Forum#12366 (PR #10129)
• [Host] Successful evacuation signature fallbacks on older XAPI versions are no longer logged as warnings (PR #10131)
