    @olivierlambert Yes sir, it is and I'm glad I confirmed this for myself. Thanks also for helping me understand how the VM Suspend process works. Hopefully this post helps other newbies with the same understanding in the future.

    I have a delta backup job with Full backup interval set to 7. If i look at the backup job results I get this: xoce (legion) Snapshot Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:02 Fiend NFS transfer Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Duration: 6 minutes Size: 23.78 GiB Speed: 73.01 MiB/s Clean VM directory cleanVm: incorrect backup size in metadata Start: 2025-07-25 03:08 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Duration: 6 minutes Start: 2025-07-25 03:02 End: 2025-07-25 03:08 Duration: 6 minutes Type: full It says "full". If i go to backup -> restore, search for this vm, i see "full 2 delta 2" in "Available Backups" column. Yet if i press "restore" arrow i see that two full backups are of 2022 year and it looks dangerous. Documentation says about that setting "For example, with a value of 2, the first two backups will be a key and a delta, and the third will start a new chain with a full backup.". Yet, I see only VERY old full backups... Xen Orchestra, commit 19412 Master, commit 6277a, but it seems that this happens for a long time. Do I miss something? Do I really have fresh full backups and these a just labeled "incremental" or what? [image: 1753444452743-xoce.png]

    So what you need is more something like backup tiering (or secondary backup). This feature is currently a work in progress by @florent

    It means one VM got a backup job that's not in your current XO. Are you sure you restored your previous XO config?

    @olivierlambert ok. For info: xo-server 5.113.0 / xo-web 5.116.1 Installed this version XO yesterday and tried a smart reboot with 14 vm's running. Windows and linux vm's. Of which some linux vm's have NFS shares which I use for ISO files and making backups with XO. These I normally have to disconnect before I can do a reboot of the host otherwise it will not reboot and had expected that this would not be necessary now. It took a very long time for all vm's to enter suspend mode (>2 hours) and the server did not reboot. Probably ran into not shutting down the NFS shares. I finish much faster if I manually shut down all vm's (and disconnect the NFS shares) reboot the host and restart the vm's. But maybe I am overlooking something then I would like to hear about it.

    You may need to extend the partition first using growpart.

    Okay so you are right: we did not test this scenario, so that's why the error is cryptic. I'm adding @Enishowk in the loop so he can put that in our backlog

    If I'm being honest here I don't really find the messages as annoying as you are making them out to be. Sure if I had a choice I would want them gone, but it's really not a big deal, 1-2 clicks and they are gone until the next time I login. I also kinda like the reminder on the sidebar about no support, helps me remember that A. I'm in my lab environment and B. I'm using a from the sources version so I need to manually do updates etc.....

    OK I got it. I didn't think that the host was using apparmor, but it actually does. So it must be started using --cap-add sys_admin --security-opt apparmor:unconfined Now it works.

    Ok. You threw me a curve ball when you mentioned the "[XO Backup blah blah]" stuff. I think you are referring to the snapshots. If so, then yes they get transferred over when you migrate the VMs.

    Assuming I have the setting in the correct place, I'm not seeing any significant difference whether the setting is there or not. without setting Duration: 10 minutes Size: 41.71 GiB Speed: 72.5 MiB/s with setting Duration: 10 minutes Size: 41.71 GiB Speed: 72.87 MiB/s CPU usage appears to be about the same.

    @abelaguilar indeed you do not have to fill out the dns and gateway fields - in fact as you surmised you shouldn't. Where you getting an error or something when leaving them blank? The only mandatory fields are IP and netmask.
