    In case anyone wonders how this played out. At the end of the day, I shutdown the host with the running workloads on it, kept it at BIOS boot so the 8.3 installer would upgrade it cleanly, and then booted it back up. For reasons related to my particular setup, the down time was more than 60 minutes. But that's not related to XCP-ng. The XCP-ng installer was maybe 10 of that. 20 of that was 3 reboots on a server that takes ages to boot. One thing that is a bit difficult is that the 8.3 installer doesn't notice ZFS volumes or help with ZFS. So after the upgrade, I have to follow a modified set of these instructions (modified because the package names have changed over time) to install ZFS and its components into the system. So the sequence is: Shutdown Install via ISO Reboot to single user mode Run yum update to pull in all the updates Run the ZFS commands to install ZFS on the host Reboot again Run normally Of course, I ended up rebooting more than just those 2 times, because I forgot that I would need to install ZFS (even though I did it on 2 different hosts already ) So now the pool is fully upgraded, everybody is happy. I'm now working on creating shared storage across the nodes. It's amateur hour over here. I appreciate all the help.

    @Pilow would it be possible to test from source, or with latest ( note that v6 will be default on latest ) ? it would be useful to have the real error message instead of the itnermediate value

    I also encountered this problem. If you are using Debian you can use pre-packaged XO from sources https://github.com/mathiswolff/xen-orchestra

    @olivierlambert I tested this now a bit more. And now it works with the traffic limiter. Your last updates have optimised the backup system too much for my NFS storage and with that froze somehow the timeout (XO is running on local storage). And you are right it is doing it per VM, but i think this was in an older version the other way around (wich would be more important to me, but not for others ). But it would be great if i could get somehow an evenly distribution of the full backups .

    You need to get the exact same structure ideally to not lose any data. But it's not a big deal, just copy/rsync whatever you like to the destination and that's it.

    Errors in CAPS means an error from the host. Check host logs, also check dynamic min memory == dynamic max

    Indeed, XO doc was built for XenServer (before XCP-ng existed). @Darkbeldin will update this accordingly

    Double check your 2nd host have permission to connect to the LUN. Try local commands on this host to see if you can access the LUN (iscsiadm for example).

    There's no XO tasks per se, so you can't see it What matters is you have all the VM migrated in the end, but yes, it's not "visible". Next major XO UI will have "XO tasks" that will display clearly the queue

    I got the same error again today. It's a delta job with two remotes. [image: 1617015537043-fe12531c-52e2-4457-bc13-ee36db7f4fb5-image.png] Even though it says the backup failed, it looks like it is available on both remotes: [image: 1617015649230-ca6eabb8-f810-44ac-bce0-7079755bc7de-image.png] srv01 = pool member srv02 = pool master srv03, srv04 = backup remotes XOA runs on srv02 The error seems to imply that it can't resolve the hostname of srv02, but that seems rather odd. I am using static IP only.

    @gigante said in Pool CPU usage is impossible: @s-pam I am unsure of the purpose of that, but at least now I know! Thanks! Just guessing here, but one reason is probably that single-threaded applications can only utilise one CPU thread, so they cannot go faster than 100%.
