XenCenter

Hidden Objects

Note:

XenCenter YYYY.x.x is not yet supported for use with Citrix Hypervisor 8.2 CU1 in production environments. To manage your Citrix Hypervisor 8.2 CU1 production environment, use XenCenter 8.2.7. For more information, see the XenCenter 8.2.7 documentation.

You can install XenCenter 8.2.7 and XenCenter YYYY.x.x on the same system. Installing XenCenter YYYY.x.x does not overwrite your XenCenter 8.2.7 installation.

Hide networks, PIFs, and VMs from XenCenter by adding the key HideFromXenCenter=true to the other_config parameter for the object in the XenServer Management API. For example, certain VMs can be hidden to prevent them being used directly by general users in your environment. Objects flagged with this key are hidden objects, and by default they do not appear anywhere in XenCenter.

To make hidden objects visible in XenCenter, on the View menu, click to select Hidden Objects. To hide them again, on the View menu, clear the Hidden Objects check mark.

See the developer documentation to find out more about flagging objects using the HideFromXenCenter key.
