    @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?

    You'll end up with a chain, yes (so every read will need to make "hops" on each member of the chain). Longer the chain, slower the operation. But it shouldn't be too catastrophic either (for a heavily IOPS loaded VM, you'll notice the difference, but not in other less IOPS hungry scenarios)

    No, because those logs are useful in case of problem (to find a potential bug). However, they are garbage collected automatically (the oldest ones) after a while.

    All I can tell is that's not an usual issue. Never heard of problem of this kind before… So yeah, there is something weird. Could be related to NFS permissions maybe, or something between XCP-ng and your NFS host. It's not XCP-ng code directly, because otherwise everyone else using NFS will endure the same problems. So it's more a "combo" between XCP-ng and your NFS within your infrastructure. Please read the wiki on where to check logs (especially SMlog) to spot potential hints on where's the issue.

    @S-Pam Having a VIF for management and one for storage-traffic is a good solution, we do it that way to avoid crippling management during backups.

    Any ideas for a more elegant way than to write a script? For my point of view vApps should work without HA mode but unfortunately it doesn't work on my XCP-ng server. Only console/script start of the vApp using xe appliance-start uuid= "set here the uuid of the vAppp" is working. But it is again rework for the next XCP-ng version, I think manually set vices in systemd are not persistent through an update. Will vApp supported also in future? there are some discussions about it, if really needed.

    A soft reboot will try to migrate existing VMs (ie running on this host) to another host in the pool. Using Xen motion, so only if there is a shared storage. If it fails, then you need a force reboot, that will shutdown the VM, and then reboot the host.

    IIRC, we based the button in XO to do both modification at the same time when you set it up for a VM (in the pool if it's not enabled and in the VM). However, it's been a while I didn't check the code, I'll take a look to be sure
