    @olivierlambert Thanks for the suggestion. I removeds the "Suspend SR" setting from the pool settings. However even on a host-local SSD SR it takes time. Here an Alpine system with 1GB ram used but 32GB allocated. It seems tapdisk is doing lots when creating a snapshot with ram. This time it took maybe less than 5 minutes to finish. [image: 1757923329796-9404b882-dd74-4223-921c-54da1b41e9c4-image-resized.png] I found the suspend image, however it is not stored on the same SR as the VM itself. (I have multiple SRs on this host). The XOA says it is 40.42GB while the image on-disk is 33GB. [image: 1757923847844-54dbaca1-8747-474a-81d0-dc68c2885e9f-image-resized.png]

    @manilx I have proposed to the IaC team of Vates, a MCP Server for Vates VMS. Which can be used by GitHub Copilot or similar, if used when doing IaC etc.

    Makes sense now that you mention it... Perhaps I should have realized that because obviously the backups only run on my primary XO instance. Thanks!

    I'm just guessing here, but maybe something like this? xo-cli --list-objects type=VM power_state=Halted | jq -r ".[].name_label"

    Yes, backup jobs require attached schedules to be executed properly.

    Hi @tony yes I understand that, actually I made a post a while back spanning different aspects of the XOA and where I feel Center is more intuitive but as suggestion for XOA improvement if anyone cares to consider it. Regarding the adding of SR's to pools, I leave my suggestion here, have a selector for pool instead of host, it'd be more intuitive imho. Cheers all.

    Becouse xoa backup is painfully slow... it's good for CR but for full vm backup, let's say it's unsuitable... on my 1Gb lan, full vm backup (DR or Copy) from xcp1 to xcp2 I have about 10-15Mb/s. This is the topic I've asked many times on this forum. And guys from vProtect brag that the speed im much better on their soft due to CBT not vhd delta - which I'll check in a while.

    AFAIK, you have to do manual passthrough for USB so if you want to attach ethernet dongle to a VM, you plug it in the host and turn off the VM, passthrough the USB to the VM, start the VM, never do snapshot of this VM as it will fail.

    Hi, sorry for the delay! Please read xo-cli's documentation, you need to use JSON when you want to pass non-string values: xo-cli vm.set id=89517372-b45b-ca36-4c51-dd17c0e760c0 CPUs=json:3

    You can map root to a local user you created on the syno (so it's all on NFS server side configuration)

    @gskger said in Backup reports on Microsoft Teams: @olivierlambert Thanks - that is what I like about this forum and XCP-ng: learn and share Exactly, but I'm really happy to see this becoming more and more common here. That's a good sign for this community

    Glad to hear it! There were probably an issue when updating the SDN controller's TLS certificate. The reload had solved it. Regards!

    VM migration stuck at 100%

    I ended up restarting the toolstack, which caused all of the migrating VMs to be in an error state, as they were halted but the system thought they should be running. I couldn't perform any actions on them. VM_BAD_POWER_STATE(OpaqueRef:f1f14751-cbc8-4a86-b98f-9e980b2b0d00, Running, Halted) After restarting the toolstack on all the hosts in the pool, they finally showed up as powered off and I was able to get them back up and could migrate them. Is there anywhere I can look to see why the migration got right to the doorstep and stopped?

    First thing you need to check if the problem is with passing the drive to XCP-ng VM, like @Biggen said, try lsblk inside xcp-ng VM (there is an option to go to shell in the installation menu if you haven't installed XCP-ng. If the XCP-ng VM only sees 1 device then it is a libvert/virt manager issue.
