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

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

@sluflyer06 and I wish HPE would be added too

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.

@Forza I didn't try, as my default Graylog Input was UDP and worked with the hosts...

But guys, that was it. In TCP mode, it's working. Rapidly set up a TCP input, and voila.

@MK.ultra don't think so

it's working without for me.

@tmk hi !
Many thanks, your modified python file did the trick, my static IP address is now working as intented.

I can confirm this is working on Windows 2025 Server as well.

@Bastien-Nollet said in Full backup - new long-retention options:

Yes, a backup is kept if it matches one of the retention criteria, either the schedule's retention or the LTR. (the backup is not duplicated, we just check for both criteria to know if we should keep the backup or not)

Could we have an option to choose wich LTR day from month to keep ?
and even for weekly, what weekday ?

finally understood the network problem...

If you have a match of MAC ADDRESS in netplan

Veeam restores the VM with a NEW MAC ADDRESS

so either you delete the match, or get the good mac on the VIF...

ok, installed pws 7

and it's working

@florent what if we use XO Proxies ?

@planedrop does your VM have a snapshot ?

@Bastien-Nollet by default what day of day/week/month/year is selected for the LTR point ?

You said we cannot choose for now, but you could give us the actual recipe ?

@Bastien-Nollet here is the config of the BACKUP job :

to the remote DC1-REMOTE01

you would expect 10 points after 1month+ of forver incremental backups ?
7 daily, 2 weekly, and 1 monthly

but I only get 7 points in this remote (the last 7 days)

I have a mirror copy job, 14 points retention, no LTR, to a remote called DC2-REMOTE01-COPYDC1, i get my exact 14 points.

so i guess, i do not profit from LTR ?
is that because i didnt put something in DAYS ? or because my retention is >1 ?
backups are executed daily by SEQUENCE.

@Bastien-Nollet where did u see his backup executing once a week ?
I see everyday, full on sunday ?

i'm discovering a new way of LTR.

we should keep retention to 1, and manage the LT points in the form below ? days included ?
as of now, I gave retention 7 days, and then only put numbers in weeks/months but the results were inexpected...

@Davidj-0 i'll ping back here whenever the app is ready to be tested
will be MS O365 auth to access

@olivierlambert sor for high number of VMs, there is a point in time where you should be aware of not doing DR too frequently to let coalesce proceed.
50VMs in a DR job, every hour, if coalesce takes 2min by VM, it didnt finish when the next DR is starting ?

i'm looking for the edge case
