    Hey, I am experiencing the same issue using XO from sources (commit 4d77b79ce920925691d84b55169ea3b70f7a52f6), Node version 22, Debian 13. I have multiple backup jobs and only one wich is a full backup job is giving me issues. Most VMs can be backed up by this full backup job just fine but some error out with "body timeout error", e.g.: { "id": "1762017810483", "message": "transfer", "start": 1762017810483, "status": "failure", "end": 1762018134258, "result": { "name": "BodyTimeoutError", "code": "UND_ERR_BODY_TIMEOUT", "message": "Body Timeout Error", "stack": "BodyTimeoutError: Body Timeout Error\n at FastTimer.onParserTimeout [as _onTimeout] (/etc/xen-orchestra/node_modules/undici/lib/dispatcher/client-h1.js:646:28)\n at Timeout.onTick [as _onTimeout] (/etc/xen-orchestra/node_modules/undici/lib/util/timers.js:162:13)\n at listOnTimeout (node:internal/timers:588:17)\n at process.processTimers (node:internal/timers:523:7)" } } XO from sources VM has 8 vCPU and 8GB RAM. Link speed of the XCP-ng hosts is 50 Gbit/s. XO VM can reach 20 Gbit/s to the NAS in iperf. Zstd is enabled for this backup job. It appears that only big VMs (as in disk size) have this issue. The VMs that have this issue on the full backup job can be backed up just fine via delta backup job. I read in another thread that this issue can be caused by dom0 hardware constrains but dom0 has 16 vCPU and is at ~40% CPU usage while backups are running. RAM usage sits at 2GB out of 8GB used. I changed my full backup job to GZIP compression and will see if this helps. Will report back. I really need compression due to the large virtual disks of some VMs... Best regards MajorP

    I switched due to SSD replacement and XCP-ng new installation. I didn't think about that switching from ext3 to lvm does also have an effect from thin to thick provisioning Anyway I found the explaination, here -> "a snapshot on a LVM based SR will double the whole VM disk size!" But I will think about to switch to ext4 -> topic solved, thank you!!

    Change the remote in your job config. If you want to keep the previous backup there, just move or copy everything to the new remote.

    No it's not how it works in XAPI. You need a dedicated ISO SR using only *.iso file name/extension.

    There's no "community" version of XOA, there's only Xen Orchestra Are you sure you are on master? Have you tried with XOA?

    You can reattach the drive (in XO web UI or with xe by recreating the VBD: vbd-create vm-uuid=4aef7b34-2e7e-53c5-62e3-331be8151287 vdi-uuid=193f9105-e23c-4fe7-a8ae-40bed37ede4e device=0). Then try to boot the VM.

    @kevdog said in HTTP to HTTPS redirection: @nikade Hey thanks for for the link. I ended up just using a LetsEncrypt cert rather than self signed. I think had to add a DNS host override on my router to associate the Local LAN address of the xo server with the domain name of the server contained in the certificate -- Like 10.0.1.50 ---> xo.example.com. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction on this one. Yeah that is a good solution as well, I hope this helps others in the future who wants to secure their XO with https

    @eangulus You can always create a CLUSTER with shares storage. Problem solved. It is even possible to create cluster using two nodes - using HA-Lizard.

    @olivierlambert One question to the additional added resource. I have added my cloudbackup server via VPN and NFS share to XOA. This works well, but I see that the local backup on the NAS is throttled down to the speed of the VPN upload tunneln. Is this behaviour correct? You know from the other Post, that I have struggels with the "cloudbackup" server. So if the transfer to the VPN-NFS share is interrupted also the transfer to the local NAS fails. Is it possible to add two daily (or every second day alternating) delta backup-jobs for a single vm? One saves the backup to local NAS and the other one to the vpn nfs share? Will the chains be consistent? Thank you for your advice, dmartini1337

    +1 for avoiding 3rd party install scripts, the official install doc is like, 10 commands? I think it takes maybe 10 minutes or less the last time I did it on a fresh debian system, and you know it's always the correct instructions (which is NOT the case with 3rd party scripts, as you'll see in this forum when even the slightest architectural change is made to the XO sources). You also get to learn at least a little bit about the architecture of what you're installing and running instead of pressing go on a script you grabbed from some guy's github and hoping the XO web interface appears. I thought the whole point of "homelab" (for which sources are intended and primarily used) was learning and developing skills in the first place? No disrespect intended to the people that create and maintain said scripts, it just seems to me like it bypasses the point of sources a little bit
