@RobWhalley I think in the beginning i had that option enabled in my backup jobs, but found it was a hassle to move VMs between hosts with it on so i turned it off for all backups. Might be why my jobs worked because i had already done that switch in the past.

RE: Backups started to fail again (overall status: failure, but both snapshot and transfer returns success)
try downgrading your nfs to use version 3. I think version 4.x has performance issues.
in you settings-->remote, you can edit the nfs mount for backups and add in the -o options section.I dont know the exact command but you can try using nfsvers=3 and see if that helps.

RE: XO Community edition backups dont work as of build 6b263
scratch that prior comment. My backups are all setup as delta backup with schedule 2nd run that forces full backup. So i believe both are working correctly.



if you can also try deleting all the backup snapshots of the VMs in the backup and running full backup then the delta backup jobs.

RE: iGPU Passsthrough Minis forum bd795i SE
@Joe_dev I have a MF unit with similar igpu. I was not able to get it working under any virtualization platform. There is something about amd igpu that makes passing it hard. I believe some have had it working under proxmox with custom kernel and video bios. I never bothered trying all that out so i just gave up on the unit.

@florent I posted this in the v6 master thread, but it opens to the old interface but sits with a still loading message.

RE: Master, commit a3139 failing backups
@simonp I downloaded the branch but i have no idea how to run a backup in v6 interface and v5 isnt working with the latest updates to XO. How do i run a backup job manually in v6?

RE: Master, commit a3139 failing backups
I just got hit with the backup error, not sure what version i was running but it was likely a3139 or higher. I have XO rebuild each morning to fetch latest updates.
Error I can find (interface jumped to v6 so still learning)Can't init vhd directory without using alias

RE: 🛰️ XO 6: dedicated thread for all your feedback!
I ran into backup failure this morning, I think someone else mentioned about it in another post. I went to check if there was a newer version of XO since usually things get fixed quickly. so I updated XO to build 9dbc09011.
Few things
- XO loads up now using interface 6 as default.
- As someone else mentioned, about version is blank in v6.
- When I click on V5 link it brings me back to V5 but its broken for me. Sits there saying loading.

- Havent tried using guide to go back to V5 to see why backup failed. Not sure if V6 has enough to figure out backup issue since i havent used it much.
Update: looks like it failing to get something on v5 url.

Update 2: I had to remove LISTEN_ADDRESS="" from my xo-install.cfg to get version 5 working again

RE: How to Setup IPMI in XO
curious how does this work, dont you need to put in a username and password/IP address for ipmi details. I havent looked at docs or tried this out, just wondering. I think on ESXI i had to setup the ipmi with such details before i could issue power on etc.
