    Re: FILE RESTORE / overlapping loop device exists we still had this annoying probleme where we couldn't FLR our backup, source VM could be Windows or linux, with or without LVM... (see error logs in previous thread, overlapping loop...) latest XOA is installed. on a secondaray XO CE, I mounted the same remote, and NO PROBLEMS AT ALL... soooo I thought my main XOA is probably beaten up somewhere... but that was not it. all remotes on main XOA are attached to a XO PROXY (official, not CE) ! on the XO CE that is in another datacenter, I mounted the S3 remotes directly WITHOUT the proxy use, and it worked. On main XOA, we offload all backup tasks to proxies, so all remotes are attached to a proxy... I duplicated a remote, same conf, but without proxy, so that XOA would do the restore job, not the proxy, and voila, all is working as intended, FLR is okay on main datacenter. TLDR : FLR is not working with proxy attached remotes, if you duplicate the remote without the XO PROXY, all good @florent @bastien-nollet I think there is something to look into. probably a race condition, the XOA and the XO PROXY both try to mount the loop device ?

    Version 1.4.0 is released: https://codeberg.org/NiXOA/system/releases/tag/v1.4.0 It includes significant changes and improvements, including: dedicated getting started section, migration to valkey, only needing to clone system, and helper scripts. the xen-orchestra-ce nixpkg now references the libvhdi nixpkg, and the core flake now references and pulls from the xen-orchestra-ce repo as an overlay. System (the user input flake) now uses the Core repo as an overlay, reducing the need to clone both locally AND allowing system to pull new updates and releases from core. XO, and libvhdi as needed. The next goal is: Make an xsconsole-like TUI Automate package updates for libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce using CI/CD pipelines Submit libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce as official nixpkgs

    @mjtbrady compression is used ( brotli, fastest mode by default) There is a problem on the size reported especially with encryption. I will add a task to the backlog to fix it (there is padding with encryption, that complexify the maths)

    Indeed, if your other hosts are somehow dead/unresponsive from XAPI perspective, ejecting them from the pool is an option to get your master booting those VMs

    Restore File - Long filenames not displayed correctly

    @pdonias I am puzzled. What do you see? To be clear there are two problems. The selected directory truncates the directory name at around 46 characters ("/var/lib/docker/containers" in my original screen shot isn't truncated because it isn't that long). "Long" file/directory names in the "Select a file" drop down do not display correctly. Once a file has been selected, the "Selected files/folders" does show it in a scrollable "widget" that can then be used to see the full file name. My screen shots are from Chrome on Fedora. I normally use Fedora/Firefox which has the same issues. I set up the following as a test. Filename lengths are 10-80 characters long. root@debian42:~/testdir# pwd /root/testdir root@debian42:~/testdir# ls -l total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:50 1234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:50 12345678901234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:50 123456789012345678901234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:50 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:50 12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:51 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:51 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 7 09:51 12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 Filename lengths 10-50 display.

    @olivierlambert i did update xoa again but no dice, i was wanting to export a couple VM's and do a head to head iscsi I/O test between vmware and xcp on identical hardware but not having much luck trying to get my VM's out of xcp. Guess I'll have to wait for this to work possibly.

    @MichaelCropper said in XO Backup Failing - Possibly to due Local Disks and loopback issues?: Job canceled to protect the VDI chain This usually indicates that there are VDIs that haven't coalesced. Check the "unhealthy VDIs" section of Dashboard > Health.

    @daninmanchester Thanks so much - this is the exact same problem I had, which was further complicated by running XO in Docker running on the OMV host exporting the NFS shares. So basically you just built a small XO VM instead of running it in Docker? I had originally been thinking of making a small VM to run XO in a container there - just because Docker containers are super easy to keep updated and I could run some other orchestration-y stuff there too, like Rancher - but if you're saying that's a non-starter I'll just bite the bullet and build a tiny VM dedicated to XO and be very grateful to you for having saved me a lot of frustration.

    @Danp Thanks, yes of course. I got excited about fixing my problems and reported too early Well, the VM has been working fine since the export / import. I can see both drives. Although the VM running fine, since the last post I had to address two related VDIs that had been connected to the Control Domain. One being million_D and the other million_D (with a camera icon). These probably ended up here because of a aborted / faulty snapshot or backup. I disconnected them .. checked a few things ... and then forgot them. Everything is running fine now. For future googlers: During the problem solving, I found out some pretty helpful info using tail -f /var/log/SMlog. To me, this issue is solved. Thank you all for the feedback.

    @florent No, I did not see that in the logs. I did see this problem is bigger than I thought. It happens more often than just causing a VM backup failure. It happens during the merge or other checks which causes the backup process to destroy (remove) parts of other VM backups. Clean VM directory parent VHD is missing parent VHD is missing parent VHD is missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing and Clean VM directory VHD check error some VHDs linked to the backup are missing

    If I felt that way and we never had issues in the past, it's maybe for a reason. I'm a very patient person (as you can read since years here). So you shouldn't be saddened but more trying to understand something you provoked (it's still not clear that you understand it). I think it's important to know when not to push too far, and you were clearly too far Next time you are frustrated on an open source software you use for free (likely in production otherwise you wouldn't have been that frustrated), remember that being kind will be more productive in the end. This will be better for everyone. Also I hope it's more clear for you that using things on master was never meant to be under our internal QA since it's not a controlled environment (but it's documented with big warnings. Maybe I'll make it even more clear in the doc, I don't know, I'm surprised you didn't get it since you are using it since a while. Maybe this misunderstanding explained part of your frustration).
