    I tried this on my lab (with XO 6.9.1), moving the pool master to the other host with xe pool-designate-new-master and then back. XO stayed connected both times and picked up the new master, even though Settings > Servers still showed the old host's address; on the way back it took a minute or two to catch up. I didn't test 6.2.2, and I used the CLI rather than the XO 5 Advanced tab, so my guess that your older version is the difference is only a guess. For the XVA, I'm not aware of release notes for the appliance image itself: it updates itself after import, and the notes that exist are per XO version, in the monthly blog post and the changelog, both linked from https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/getting-started/releases#release-cadence-and-channels . How often the downloadable XVA gets rebuilt I don't know, so the 2025.12 tag may just be the date of the base image, but I'd rather ask than guess.

    I ran into the same problem with DR replicas. Ignoring VMs by tag would solve the problem, but so would excluding the ip address information.

    Hi! We recieved a fix via the support after opening a ticket as suggested. Now the pool metadata backup is running smoothly again. As far as i know 6.9 will become "stable" after 6.10 is released. I'd still suggest a patch for the stable version, unless the new release is a few days. Best wishes Jacob

    Hello there, I posted in another thread an experimental Docker containers integration, not for production, but good enough to test it, see https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/12423/bringing-container-visibility-back-to-xo/9?_=1791618850567

    @Danp Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I was following an older howto where --global was not specified. That was my first problem - now fixed! Second problem was that I had installed into the root directory of Centos7 so the paths for creating the links were different. Once I had found the correct paths and created the links all was good. Thanks again. Frank.

    @fx991 the SR scans can and have been helpful in detecting storage issues for me. Sometimes when my ISO library goes offline but XCP-ng has not detected the failure and still shows it as connected I usually notice it from the long running SR scans that get stuck. The "Connection to VM console..." task is when you have a console window open to a VM or Host...hence the reason why you can't cancel/end it...if you want to get rid of it then close all open console windows

    I can already confirm that I could trigger 2 Jobs manually in XO and it run successfully. Thanks! The scheduled ones I will see tomorrow and report if it would fail, but it is not expected.

    It could, I don't know what XCP-ng Center can do in details. But again, this is NOT a problem. I said it 3 times, why do you think it's still related to your coalesce problems?

    It's the default parameter of your template. XCP-ng Center is probably forcing fixed memory, XO is just doing template recommendation. You can change values at creation in "Advanced" section.

    Building Xen Orchestra from Source: FreeBSD xo-web:build _ Error: null

    @Danp As soon as I read that, I thought "I think I've been down this road before." Sure enough. I gave it 2G of RAM and it wouldn't build. I gave it 4G of RAM and I watched using systat and that final step went to about 52% of RAM usage. It has completed. I routinely run Xen Orchestra on a 1G VM because it's rarely used and it runs fine that way. But building it clearly takes a lot more RAM. I'll update my internal notes. It might be worth it to update the building from source docs to mention having enough RAM. Thanks for hitting the nail on the head with that advice!

    XOA got its own numbering, unrelated to xo-server or xo-web: it'a all a matter of a coherent "whole", including dependencies etc. Thing we can't provide when built on sources. Please test and report You can switch to latest too, doesn't matter.

    @karlisi said in Interrupted CR task - what now?: Automatically deleting incomplete VMs can be dangerous This is an example - don't take it too strictly. I'm talking about exaclty the above problem. I was not aware of it. No information about the problem and this is the exactly the real problem.

    Stuck at copying Continuous Replicated VM

    @olivierlambert said in Stuck at copying Continuous Replicated VM: In order to CR to continue after "booting it", you must use a copy. In case of you lost your origin VM, then it doesn't matter if you boot the replicated VM directly. I don't know why full clone doesn't work on this SR. I give up for now I have no idea why it did not work. No error messages on the logs also. It just stuck. anyways thank you @olivierlambert for your time. I created a new VM and attach the copied VDI 1 to it. The second VDI cannot be attached so I delete it and will copy from the source server. Looks like it is working. I have one more VM to process and this time I will double check the steps and share any progress here.
