Hey all,
We are proud of our new setup, full XCPng hosting solution we racked in a datacenter today.
This is the production node, tomorrow i'll post the replica node !
XCPng 8.3, HPE hardware obviously, and we are preparing full automation of clients by API (from switch vlans to firewall public IP, and automatic VM deployment).
This needs a sticker "Vates Inside" 
#vent
just to #brag
Deploy of worker is okay (one big rocky linux with default settings 6vcpu, 6Gb RAM, 100Gb vdi)
first backup is fine, with decent speed ! (to a xcp hosted S3 minio)
will keep testing
@sluflyer06 and I wish HPE would be added too
is there anywhere where we can check the backlog / work in progress / to be done on XO6 ?
I did stick to version: 1 in my working configuration
Had to rename my "Ethernet 2" nic name to Ethernet2 without the space
You have to put the exact template nic name for this to work.
@MajorP93 throw in multiple garbage collections during snap/desnap of backups on a XOSTOR SR, and these SR scans really get in the way
Hi,
Smart backups are wonderful to manage smart selection of VMs to be backuped.
When we browse the RESTORE section, would be cool to get the TAGs back visually, and possibility to filter them
I'd like to get "all VMs restorable with this particular TAG" type of filter, hope i'm clear.
Perhaps something to add to XO6 ?
Could we have a way to know wich backup is part of LTR ?
In veeam B&R, when doing LTR/GFS, there is a letter like W(weekly) M(monthly) Y(yearly)to signal the fact in the UI
That's pure cosmectics indeed, but practical.
@Bastien-Nollet okay i'll do that tonight and will report back
@Bastien-Nollet said in backup mail report says INTERRUPTED but it's not ?:
file packages/xo-server-backup-reports/dist/index.js by a
modification done, will give feedback
When creating vm in v6 and renaming the disk name. You can only enter 1 letter at a time. You have to keep clicking then typing the next letter. No other field has this issue.
JS focus problem, should be easy to fix by the devs
@acebmxer when changing SR, full pass is expected (it is documented) even with CBT enabled.
the bitmap file of the CBT needs to be reconstructed on the destination SR, so you get a full pass, and next passes will get delta as expected
@MajorP93 did see that too
but when in a THICK lvmoiscsi environment, hard to let full snaps ... CBT is quite a savior, but you get these quircks (backup fell back to full) from time to time.. seems random.
only time when you get it 100% is when you have a DR job and then next delta of VM WILL BE a full... 
@Greg_E hi there,
beyond number of minimal hosts to be supported (think it's 3) and minimal disks to get good redundancy (I think its minimal 3 per host, must be identical) you have a replication parameter when building an XOSTOR
it defaults to two (you have two copies of each workload) and this parameter can impact your total usable space.
also beware of network requirements (for satellites connections, and DRBD replication)
minimum of 2 nics per server, and DRDB replication should be at least 10Gb nics
tip : the linstor-controller is not always the pool master...
@kent you would have to rollback to early december 2025 XO/XOA (before the 10 of december)
quite a long way
I'm just waiting the devs to eventually fix it as we have other way to manage VDIs (API calls)
@benapetr you seem gifted with app development.
do you know RV Tools ? https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000325532/rvtools-4-7-1-installer
this tool is pretty handy when auditing VMWARE infrastructures, it can connect to vcenter or directly to ESXi and full dump in csv/xlsx the infrastructure configuration (all aspects of the config, be it VM, hosts, networks, datastores, files, ...)
I could see a real production use of same tool, but for XCP Pools/XCP hosts
would be a great add to XenAdmin !
@MajorP93 we have almost same size 30 backup jobs (mixed delta/cr/repl/dr) for 95+ VMs
but these are not operated by XOA but dispatched in 4 XO Proxies
and still XOA get OOM killed 
@florent okay
but at 3 days without reboot i'm like this :
still on XOA 6.1.2
uptime is 2 days for me
but restarted xo-server yesterday
zoom on 2 hours
