    @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 worked around this issue by changing my full backup job to "delta backup" and enabling "force full backup" in the schedule options. Delta backup seems more reliable as of now. Looking forward to a fix as Zstd compression is an appealing feature of the full backup method.

    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.

  • Terraform, Packer or any tool to do IaC

    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.

    @MichaelCropper said in XO Backup Failing - Possibly to due Local Disks and loopback issues?: Job canceled to protect the VDI chain This usually indicates that there are VDIs that haven't coalesced. Check the "unhealthy VDIs" section of Dashboard > Health.

    @daninmanchester Thanks so much - this is the exact same problem I had, which was further complicated by running XO in Docker running on the OMV host exporting the NFS shares. So basically you just built a small XO VM instead of running it in Docker? I had originally been thinking of making a small VM to run XO in a container there - just because Docker containers are super easy to keep updated and I could run some other orchestration-y stuff there too, like Rancher - but if you're saying that's a non-starter I'll just bite the bullet and build a tiny VM dedicated to XO and be very grateful to you for having saved me a lot of frustration.

    @Danp Thanks, yes of course. I got excited about fixing my problems and reported too early Well, the VM has been working fine since the export / import. I can see both drives. Although the VM running fine, since the last post I had to address two related VDIs that had been connected to the Control Domain. One being million_D and the other million_D (with a camera icon). These probably ended up here because of a aborted / faulty snapshot or backup. I disconnected them .. checked a few things ... and then forgot them. Everything is running fine now. For future googlers: During the problem solving, I found out some pretty helpful info using tail -f /var/log/SMlog. To me, this issue is solved. Thank you all for the feedback.

    @florent No, I did not see that in the logs. I did see this problem is bigger than I thought. It happens more often than just causing a VM backup failure. It happens during the merge or other checks which causes the backup process to destroy (remove) parts of other VM backups. Clean VM directory parent VHD is missing parent VHD is missing parent VHD is missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing some VHDs linked to the backup are missing and Clean VM directory VHD check error some VHDs linked to the backup are missing

    If I felt that way and we never had issues in the past, it's maybe for a reason. I'm a very patient person (as you can read since years here). So you shouldn't be saddened but more trying to understand something you provoked (it's still not clear that you understand it). I think it's important to know when not to push too far, and you were clearly too far Next time you are frustrated on an open source software you use for free (likely in production otherwise you wouldn't have been that frustrated), remember that being kind will be more productive in the end. This will be better for everyone. Also I hope it's more clear for you that using things on master was never meant to be under our internal QA since it's not a controlled environment (but it's documented with big warnings. Maybe I'll make it even more clear in the doc, I don't know, I'm surprised you didn't get it since you are using it since a while. Maybe this misunderstanding explained part of your frustration).

    @jcdick1 I run opnsense on xcp-ng personally as well and use their packaged tools without issue, the only time I've gotten this behavior is when I hot-added interfaces and it changed the order of interfaces. If that's not it, I'm really not sure what would be causing this One last thing you can try in case it's a weird cash issue is (inside XOA) go to settings > servers, click the green connected button next to your xcp-ng server to disconnect it from xoa - then wait a couple seconds and click it again to reconnect it

    It is in the same place in XO. Network tab of the host. Change the Mode from None to Static (or DHCP). This should get you a pop up to enter the address, netmask, etc.
