    @paco On the stuck server, could you warm migrate the vms to one of the other hosts? Or could you shut down a VM at a time and cold migrate them? The second option is certainly not ideal, but maybe?

    Hi, Latest XOA, with fully patched XCP 8.3 here. I'm fiddling around again with NBD+CBT in backup jobs (was avoiding CBT for a time, to reliably control my backups and avoid unnecessary KEY points) in the context of THICK SRs to spare some space. I know that CBT is reset when migrating from one SR to another. But here is what I encounter : VM has no CBT enabled on its VDIs, it is on a SHARED SR in a pool of 3 hosts backup option changed for NBD+CBT, was only NBD before CBT is enabled on the next run by the backup job, I get a delta (was expecting a FULL ?) next run, delta, as expected i migrate this VM on another HOST, without changing its SR CBT is immediatly disabled ? why ?? next run of backup it tries a delta, but "fall back to a full" (normal as CBT has been disabled...), and do a KEY point on the remote next run is a delta as expected does this mean if I do a rolling pool update or host maintenance that will move the all VMs around, all CBT will be disabled and I should expect a FALL BACK TO FULL on all my NBD+CBT enabled backup jobs ??! why disabling CBT on a change of HOST and no move of SR ?

    @Danp said in Backup Error: "302 Found": @DustinB You could try the same backup job using XOA. If that works correctly, then that would eliminate some of the environmental causes. Got it sorted out, and addressed a speed issue I was experiencing. The advanced options of the pool, I had set ETH1 as the backup network, which for some reason keeps falling back to 10FDx and is generally just bad. Undid that change as well as moved my XO over to a different vNIC which appears to have addressed the issues.

    Alright I updated XO again and the problem is gone. I would just like to comment that unlike described by another user that was only happening on single-node installs, this was happening to me in 2 out 4 nodes in a cluster. Two hosts would show normal, and another two showed glitched. Anyway, SOLVED!

    I'm talking about VM snapshots (and by transitivity, VDI snapshots). Retention is the number of backup you save on the backup repository, and it's totally unrelated to the number of snapshots when doing full or incremental backups.

    The code is entirely open source. It's just that the deploy is exposed in the XOA UI

    Of real RAM usage? Eg with htop, take care of the cache too, because even if the cache is used doesn't mean it's really important. Maybe 8GiB is enough for example.

    Nothing like that could happen. If your orphaned VDI is in use, it will error out with "VDI in use".

    @olivierlambert I can do it pretty easily, but there may be a good reason for XAPI to throw this error instead.

    @shinuza The version inside the Debian image and the version on GitHub may be different. It is likely that there will be more recent versions on GitHub. Just don't select a version and the latest version from the Debian repository will be installed. const k8sInstall = k8sVersion !== undefined ? `apt-get install -y kubelet=${k8sVersion} kubeadm=${k8sVersion} kubectl=${k8sVersion}` : "apt-get install -y kubelet kubeadm kubectl";
