    @irtaza9 Is this on a single host or a pool? Are all hosts properly time-synchronized? It it related to just one specific storage device or on any, e.g., is the behavior the same on a locally-created SR? Are there any hung tasks causing unnecessary I/O on that storage device?

    @dknight-bg the Feeder post you linked asks for two things: sending audit events to syslog, which is what this PR does, and recording successful logins, which as far as I can tell the PR doesn't touch. If others reading this need either one, a vote on https://feedback.vates.tech/posts/88/audit-log-forward-events-to-remote-syslog-record-successful-logins is the easiest way to show it. The PR is still waiting for a reviewer, as far as I can see.

    Hi, @Velocity1192 . On v6 first: creating and editing backup jobs still happens in XO 5 for now, XO 6 shows the jobs but doesn't create them yet (https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/backups-and-dr/backups-in-xo6). For the schedule, @abudef asked almost the same question earlier this year. @Pilow's answer there is clearer than anything I'd write: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/104108. As I read it, you either use one daily schedule plus the "Full backup interval" setting (the full lands N runs after the chain starts), or two schedules on the same job with "Force full backup" ticked on the Sunday one. That second way is how you get to pick the day, and he says not to mix the two. One thing to expect, from @Danp in another thread (https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/91943) : the oldest backup is always a full and old deltas get merged into it, so for a while you'll see two fulls on the remote rather than weeks 1 and 2 being deleted. I don't think the scheduler can say "every other Sunday". I might be wrong there; someone who runs this kind of plan may know a trick.

    For anyone else who steps through this, I've also installed the latest xen-guest-agent with the below process. Repeat for each host in the environment, 1 at a time from your Helper VM. ### ssh into your helper ### oc debug node/fedora-cmp-1/2/3 chroot /host cd /var/tmp curl -LO https://gitlab.com/xen-project/xen-guest-agent/-/jobs/6041686376/artifacts/raw/RPMS/x86_64/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm sudo rpm-ostree install /var/tmp/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm mkdir /var/tmp/xga && cd /var/tmp/xga rpm2cpio ../xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv ### From your helper... DRAIN YOUR WORKERS ### oc adm drain fedora-cmp-1/2/3 --ignore-daemonsets --delete-emptydir-data ### log back into fedora-cmp-1/2/3... ### sudo systemctl reboot ### from helper ### oc adm uncordon fedora-cmp-1/2/3 ### login to fedora-cmp-1/2/3 ### chroot /host sudo systemctl enable --now xen-guest-agent And then from XO this is what your VMs will look like.

    @axel I just ran the installation script on a Debian 10 VM and it worked as expected. Even when using the "official" way, sometimes the installation can fail due to things like -- issues with recent commit to github repo issues with upstream dependency etc This is why the pre-built XOA appliance exists. Feel free to open an issue over on the script's Github repo if you continue to encounter issues.

    This is a 3rd party container not validated nor endorsed by XO devs. We don't know what's inside, if you have questions on it, ask on the Github repo of the maintainer Backup reports will answer your initial question/requirement (reports can be sent by email, Slack etc.) There's also a Nagios plugin, or you can use XO API to make request to be support in any software of your infrastructure Monitoring a Docker container is outside scope of XO, I would suggest to ask Docker community. Regarding XO and how backup are done, any fresh XOA deployed (or from the sources) will be able to find all the previous backup done by an old XOA, because we store every info on the remote.

    The best option is to use Disaster Recovery, or both DR with your current backup. It's the easiest way. Please watch the video I posted.

    Yeah it's like there's no network. Also double check with XOA (that you can deploy here: http://xen-orchestra.com/#!/xoa )

    I think this is what happens when you ask XOA to move a disk into a different resource pool, and that pool can't see the storage. Discovered that by accident

    Olivier - the destination storage was attached to the wrong pool. It was behaving correctly, but not doing what I wanted.

    I'm fed up with trolling. I already explained that XOA can be seen as a "Xen Orchestra dedicated distro", we make the choice to build it from a "snapshot" (commit) on various component. It's not based on a GitHub branch. That's our choice that you can do on your side if you want to build a XOA equivalent. You have all the 3 liberties of GPL software because everything is available on GitHub. XOA is a choice of which version to use together for each component, with QA and mastered env to be able to make efficient support. If you can't understand that despite 3 or 4 persons explained that to you, we can't do anything else. Good bye.

    Yes, for now and until the proxies are available, everything is going through the XOA. In your example, it goes from Site 2 (VM1) to Site 1 (XOA) and then to site 3 (VM1 replicated) If you are interested into proxies, feel free to subscribe on the form at the end of the article, we are planning to have an alpha version as soon as possible

    @DukeVenator I suppose you've done that, but just in case I'lll ask: have you issued systemctl restart xo-server.service ? Firewall rules may need modyfying. What is the output of ufw status verbose ?

    @Danp No, I haven't as I never use non-LTS servers from Ubuntu, and most software and guides asks for LTS. I might test it later with 19.04 but my posting here was more for the sake of others as I imagine that I'm not the only one that has experienced this on Ubuntu so when I figured out that it works in Debian I figured others could get some help too. It might also point the developers in the right direction if they wish to look into this, I don't know how many users there are that have got this problem but at least there are some of us so it might be something to look at if not at least there is a posted alternative. Most would not change OS if all guides tell them that Ubuntu works so this was more meant as a PSA if nothing else.
