    @DustyArmstrong thats super-strange, i actually have the same setup at home, 2 hp z240 machines running xcp-ng in a small pool. xcp1 is always up and running, xcp2 is powered down when I dont need it, everything important is running on xcp1, maybe that's the reason I don't run into these issues.

    OK, I still had my old pool master registered as a server in XO (disabled), removing this and restarting XO now shows the VMs properly in the audit logs when snapshot, and it shows them being initiated by my XO IP, but the snapshots are still seen as detached ("Missing VM"). Maybe it will just resolve itself eventually if XAPI is holding onto stale references? I still have my old backups ("Detached backups") that I'm waiting to remove (job itself removed), maybe that's also impacting things - I will be removing the backed up VHDs once my NAS has copied them to an external drive (very slow!). I'm not opposed to blowing XO away and starting it over, I need to start a new backup job anyway - if there's a procedure/best practice to go by in order to re-create all the metadata I'd be interested.

    @nathanael-h As a further follow up the MCP agents include at minimum:- Pulumi MariaDB Anyway I would really appreciate having an MCP Server which, can be used when writing IaC to provision and configure your customers’ systems. Can it be made available during this year please?

    What you found is a pretty old and outdated thread, and conclusion is: It's not limited - and there's no real difference between 1 and 10GE. In case it's limited to protect mgmt-int, it would scale with 10GE, but in fact it doesn't.

    Use a single partition because this is a nice way to let cloud init grow the system disk if needed. I made a guide a while ago about doing this on a Debian, it's exactly the same principle: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/debian-cloud-template-for-xenserver/

    XOA shows hundreds of client connections

    I ran into something VERY similar with XCP-ng and\or XOA a while back - ended up with close to 200 new "clients" showing up on my Meraki gear. They weren't even "connected" long enough to register as IP clients, only MAC clients (ARP, possibly). I didn't think much about it at the time, as both the MAC addresses and hardware information didn't seem to be tied to any actual device by some manufacturer. I may be able to pull those out from my client history... EDIT: Here is a small section of that list: [image: 1556589256050-fc439a0c96cb13a0b2b11b3bd80ff3be.png]

    To get assistance on XOA, since you have support, it's better to go with our support ticket system. This way, you can be sure to have an answer with direct developer access in a guaranteed amount of time. Please open a ticket here: https://support.vates.fr/#/tickets XOA isn't dealing on what's inside on the VM: it's an hypervisor-level agentless backup solution. As soon you create the ticket, we'll take a more in-depth look about details (what kind of backup are you using? Delta or full etc.) and also if there anything special we could do at our level.

    I don't know what's the /xen path? Install via this docker isn't the official/documented way, so it's hard to assist. Please try to build it according the doc and double check if reverse work as documented too. Otherwise, it's an issue of the Docker you use with our doc, so you'll better time to create an issue on the 3rd party "installer".

    It depends where you decided to install it (basically where you cloned to repo). Also remove the redis database if it's only used for XO.

    If you didn't, I strongly suggest that you watch the live YT webinar I did on XO backups. IIRC, there is a part talking about smart backup. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfUqIwT8KzI

    You have a problem on your XCP-ng, this is not related to a XO issue. It's stuck doing a snapshot, which is really a basic operation that shouldn't fail at all. Double check your SMlog on the host.

    It looks like I can remove the remotes and set them up again, and configure the backup jobs to address the new share. That's okay, there are not too many.

    You need one XOA, connected to both pools. It will stream the VM content (delta) from the source to the destination. You don't need any directly link between your SR in both DCs. You DCs can be isolated with just one XOA connected to both, and it will work.

    No XCP-ng/XenServer workaround, it's a "built-in"/by design limitation (it's considered as "stalled"). So your goal would be to avoid these extremely long tasks (ie: to finish before the task is destroyed)
