    @Andrew Yeah but XOA is still using it hence my interest in aligning my XO-CE instance with XOA as close as possible.

    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

    @olivierlambert XO does not test the full VHD structure because that would be too long, but does check both the begining and the end of the file (and all other VHDs in the chain) before each backup to make sure the files were not truncated. For full backup we are using a simple heuristic to attempt to validate XVA files, but it's very basic and unfortunately it does not applies to compressed files.

    @julien-f I believe that you already updated the docs, but that occurred after the postings above. You may want to review the section discussing forever-service to be sure it doesn't need modified.

    @s-pam i'd say use them, always use the. Only a few KB of space and could be every handy. We have 3 servers in the pool so overlooked requirement for full pool recovery. (p.s we didn't fail, it's during DR testing it was flagged) we had the backups on already and if this had been a real issue, would have saved a lot of bacon!! turn it on ! (and check you can get it without a running XOA for quicker restore in full meltdown.)

    This section has nothing to do with XOA IP address, but useful to restrict some VMs to some IP address. I agree it's unclear. But as I said, for now, there's 0 GUI to configure the system per se. That's why I said it could be an addition sure, but there's nothing yet, so adding it will take some time or efforts, and it's not a priority as we speak (our backlog is already pretty big). But again, as an Open Source project, we are welcoming contributions!

    To pick a pool: it's up to you to decide, depending on available pool storage capacity, speed. Same for compute and network. It's very very specific to your own needs, there's no universal rules. Host selection for a VM: it's not decided by XO but by XAPI (except if you specifically ask to boot on a host). IIRC, it's a mix of load and memory available, but if you want to dig further, it should be written in the XAPI code somewhere

    @indyj FYI when I ran this test again it worked. this time: I ran it as a "Delta" backup. And then rescanned the removable media. I was then able to restore an individual file from the backup on USB media.

    @garrya Hi, it sounds like you've set up VLAN interfaces correctly on the XCP-ng side, but the switch they are connected to also needs to be aware of VLAN tags to pass them, or else it will only pass untagged traffic as you noticed. You'll need a smart/managed switch with VLAN capability to do so

    We are investigating an elegant solution called RunX. Basically, it might be able to transparently any standard "container stack" (Docker and/or k8s). See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m95hojMtsU There's some work to adapt that to XAPI, but it might be doable. This means XCP-ng could be "container" native while having very good level of isolation with very small VMs (only few MiB overhead).

    This is simple enough so we'll implement it in XO 5. Thanks for the feedback!

    5.79.3 / 5.81.0 All of my backups work (now), and speeds range between 5 MB/s to 20 MB/s. Most of my VM's are smaller (zstd helps a lot), though the largest archive is about 80 GB. Also, all of my backups are sequential -- I seem to remember a previous note where somebody had problems with concurrent uploads. My XOCE VM runs with 12 GB, which was the number that "just works" according to some of my earlier problems (and I haven't bothered to chase down or fine tune further).

    @olivierlambert having exactly the same issue as wcom939 reported. What did you mean by "Can you try with xe command to see if you have the same error?" ? Migrate using CLI? there are too many options:)
