    @edsilber Yeah I'm not really sure, I also assumed that cron (and XO would use the cron pattern for months). Clearly it doesn't. Using AT on the CLI of your host/pool should work (I imagine). But yeah having a "Run Now" function in XO would be killer.

    I've been have a re-occurring issue where my backups get stuck when attempting the transfer part of the health check. I'm using XO from sources. Currently on commit 54459, but this issue has persisted over multiple updates. It's not always the same VM(s) each time. The remote target is a TrueNAS box sharing via Samba. The health checks are set to transfer to a HDD directly on the host. I do have the time out option configured for 3 hours, but that seems to be being ignored at this point. I usually just restart the xo-server service and then retry the failed ones, but at this point I seem to have to do that after every backup. Example: [image: 1761779483775-c21d124c-3903-48a9-9e0e-8cfc5a3e36a0-image.png]

    I was curious if there had been any updates to mounting ISOs via the API? Thanks.

    @olivierlambert said in Migrating logs and history between XOA instances?: Hi, VM stats aren't store on XOA but on your pools, and they should be there with the same history as the old one Can you tell exactly what kind of logs are you talking about? Thanks. I had looked on the wrong VM. The stats are indeed retained. Originally I was thinking of audit logs, but I realized they can be exported and imported. So for m point of view it is enough for now. Other logs that are missing is for example backup logs.

    @Forza I didn't try, as my default Graylog Input was UDP and worked with the hosts... But guys, that was it. In TCP mode, it's working. Rapidly set up a TCP input, and voila. [image: 1758137911306-42411fc9-af86-4838-a870-ca9ca6307234-image.png]

    @KPS Unfortunate, no. I just replicate and avoid moving live VM on the same host, target for replication.

    @DustinB Yeah I thought about doing something like this, but then we are getting into overkill costs lol. My main point behind this post was to get info on what other people are doing, I presumed most are just relying on config backups and will restore it at the other site if needed, which is fine. I was just also debating about whether or not I wanted the subnets to match between these 2 sites, since that can create some routing headaches, but should still be doable and would make recovery even faster. @olivierlambert yeah I do use that feature, so that's very helpful! Should make this all doable.

    @Andrw0830 I am using paid version of ESXi / vSphere. The free version of ESXi has so many limitations that I consider it pretty much unusable / only usable for very limited basic tests. It would not suprise me if your issue is due to the license limitations within ESXi.

    XOA suddenly "empty" during rolling update

    @Andrew said in XOA suddenly "empty" during rolling update: @halvor Yes, kind of... The pool master must be updated and rebooted first. If you move the master to a different host then you are no longer rebooting the pool master first. XOA is just a very smart client and needs the pool master to provide all of the pool information. Secondary machines will just redirect to the master, so if you try to connect XOA to one as a backup it won't work. You just need to wait for the master to reboot and return to a functioning state and wait for XOA to automatically reconnect. The everything will start happening again. If your master host is destroyed (ie. software corruption, hardware failure) then an existing host can be forced to take over the pool as master, but this is not a good thing to do unless the actual pool master is unrecoverable. Ok, great, thank you for clearing this up!

    @planedrop While you are connected to the XOA VM, be sure to verify that the required changes have been performed on /etc/systemd/system/xo-server.service when the VM memory was increased. Details can be found in this troubleshooting KB article -- https://help.vates.tech/kb/en-us/31/48

    I have no idea what this flag is doing, so my gut feeling is: no, it's not on XO side but a "problem "on the reverse proxy itself.

    @CodeMercenary Glad it worked! I just noticed that in the couple weeks since this happened, a new set of Pool Patches was available, so I ran through the usual process to update those and had no issues at all. This time, everything went smoothly, just as it has for the entire time I've had this lab up and running. So, chalk this up to one of those weird glitches you're bound to see when you use any technology long enough. As far as I'm concerned, the issue has been resolved. Please feel free to close out the issue.

    @Cyrille It would be nice if (assuming integration with the ccm) there was a way to integrate the horizontal scaling tooling that exists to automatically scale up&down (setting minimum/maximum VM counts), but that is 100% out of scope for the CCM as is Im sure. If you are asking for a dream wishlist tho, Id love if I could See what recipes Ive deployed & their current settings & general sum-stats have ability to adjust variables such as the ssh key, the current worker count or upgrade to a HA cluster (that is, increase master count to 3. (I understand that some of those are harder than others) Be able to upgrade the recipes as necessary (IE from 1.33-> 1.34).

    @HH said in XO Commuity Edition Xen Orchestra, commit fee7b geht nicht auf Master, commit e5702: I didn't mean that I want to go to 6.0 now, but when 6.0 becomes "Stable LTS", get that automatically with your script ? Assuming there aren't any major changes to the upgrading processing using the existing script should work, but that has to be determined once a general release is created.
