    @stormi Great Idea! Post updated ! Update: I also added 'Automatic Backup' which backs up your original file in case something goes wrong.

    xcp used dellr640 dis pool as vm store, 4TB, single disk. it was local SR. Brought in trunas, set a SR device: /dev/sda, rebooted Dell, now VMs wont start. Current issue: Your SR metadata is partially lost. Specifically: The VDI files exist But XAPI has lost the VM VDI attachment records (VBDs) That is why: SR scan complains VMs have no disks XO only shows “Other install media” This is classic SR metadata desync, usually caused by: SR delete/recreate Interrupted SR introduce xapi restart during SR changes... How can I still use my current VM data? I am deep in the chatGPT hole. Any help is greatly warranted[image: 1767068879696-screen-shot-2025-12-29-at-22.27.52-pm-resized.png] [image: 1767068916596-screen-shot-2025-12-29-at-22.28.19-pm-resized.png] [image: 1767068916971-screen-shot-2025-12-29-at-22.28.25-pm-resized.png] [image: 1767068944973-screen-shot-2025-12-29-at-22.28.53-pm-resized.png] .

    @Danp I have also seen this problem with XO, but currently do not have an example to test. This was an issue on both local SR and shared SR on NFS.

    @ronan-a said in XOSTOR hyperconvergence preview: @peter_webbird We've already had feedback on CBT and LINSTOR/DRBD, we don't necessarily recommend enabling it. We have a blocking dev card regarding a bug with LVM lvchange command that may fail on CBT volumes used by a XOSTOR SR. We also have other issues related to migration with CBT. Is the problem still occurring on latest XCP-ng / XOSTOR version ? Not being able to use CBT on XOSTOR is a big issue for backup/replication.
