    @cmanos No problem, glad I could helped. As Olivier also pointed above, it's not an issue anymore when using QCOW2 which is currently in beta, so hopefully it's only a short workaround

    I had to disable Purge snapshot data when using CBT. Backups are not longer defaulting to full backups.

    Yes, they are created either: on demand for users when we need in XO 6 Now, XO 6 is becoming the main driver for new endpoint as the UI is providing more and more features.

    This approach isn’t entirely foolproof since I can’t use a wildcard, and I don’t know how many disks will be attached to the VM. For now, it will never exceed two disks, so I can explicitly include both in the ignore_changes statement. That’s an acceptable solution for us. Thanks for your support.

    So you are using a thick provisioned storage. Any snapshot will create a base copy, but also an active disk (which will be the total size of the disk). You can't cheat on that. Transforming a snapshot into a VM will create a new active drive that will use the total size of the disk.

    @ysageev we're fisrt making the transfer from vmware work through an HTTP link in xo-cli. After this we'll do a UX, allowing a user to migrate from XO , it will probably be a three steps form : connect to an host, choose which VM(s) to migrate , transfer progress Then, depending on the priority , we may make other transport ( for example if you mounted the VMFS datastore in XO, copied files locally or through SSH) By the way, we fixed a timeout bug in xo-server, that was cutting the vmdk/ova import around the 5mn mark, you may retry the old method

    Thanks @lawrencesystems - I've finally got around to watching that video, explains the content well, quite interesting to see that happening in real time when the RAM is being land-grabbed by other VMs when things are getting full based on the different configuration settings.

    Doesn't matter, the VMware script is available in there too. Just switch to the vmware release channel and follow instructions there: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/6714/vmware-migration-tool-we-need-your-feedback/

    See https://xcp-ng.org/blog/2022/11/18/xcp-ng-8-3-alpha/#-vm-snapshot-with-disk-exclusion It's already used/supported by Xen Orchestra. If you want it for production, you'll need to wait for XCP-ng 8.3 to be available

    @julien-f said in Search filters: affinityHost:* check it again affinityHost:* works now, my bad. got it. i mean if selected 16sockets\1core instead of 1socket\16cores i can only search for coresPerSocket:<2, but small vms really use 1-2 cores\socket.

    Hi, XOA in Debian 9 is outdated/deprecated. You should export your config and import it on a freshly deployed XOA
