    @danp Restoring with installation from latest .iso the error was different. Don't remember the exact failures, but there was a statement about "missing columns". Searching the forum brought me to your post in 06/2024 to apply all the available patches. Patched then with "yum" and 155 packages were updated. Then the new failure with "restore incompatible version" came up. Due to missing XO capability that moment, I did the update using command line, maybe that's the failure?

    @lukasz-engel said in Feature request - VM folders: My 2 cents as current vSphere user (searching for replacement after new VMware prices knocked my socks off): Tags in XO are currently only "view filtering feature", nothing more. There is no method in XO to (without selecting each vm separately): attach ACL to group of vms select group of vms for backup job Tags are also error-prone, as I have to manually enter tag name each time (for each vm) and possibly make a typo (there are not even "hints" from current tag names). I would like to add vm to "group" and this should cause deriving ACLs from "group" and adding to backup job assigned to "group", etc; whatever this "group" would be - folder/tag. As I have ~500 vms, grouping is "must have" for me. I'll live if "groups" are tags not folders. But not having this at all in XO is BIG disadvantage for me. (without this I quite like what I found in xcp-ng/xo). For me - something like folder seems more natural for such things than tags, but I am biased (as vSphere has folders...). And generally - in current situation (new prices for vSphere) I suspect there may be more users like me, searching for vSphere replacement, and making XO more friendly for them would be advantage for them... I do think a lot of this 'group' idea could be made possible using the self service resourceSets, especially if we were able to maybe set "Operator" ACLs on said resourceSet. Maybe even allow tags to be applied to a resourceSet so things like backups would be applied to entire resourceSets vs. an individual VM?

    We see occasional VM backup failures that match the above pattern (ENOENT on a "path" in a S3 bucket remote destination during a VM delta backup). We are running a backup of a large VM (200GB disk) to S3 bucket in Ceph Object Gateway. Our current XO is this commit https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/commit/da51b1649c65d7d78a4eb25cc46c488ce2552800 from 2024-03-04. The failure is intermittent.

    @Squall124 While being a bug and I understand it can be a pita but then there's a workaround, I still think you're making a storm in a waterglass by saying "really scary when we think about using this solution in production". Nobody is forcing you to this. We ourselves are more than happy, to say the least, to have made the switch from Vmware (with 2yrs of paid contract in place) to xcp-ng last year! The level of support and interaction you get, you can only dream about it getting it on the black side (even before the Broadcom debacle), puts up with this smaller nuisances by the ton. Just my 2 cents.

    Yes, you can create a group and provide ACLs on the group (IIRC). So all users in the group will have the same permissions.

    It's not that I'm not happy, I'm just explaining why it makes more sense to post issues on the GitHub repo that you used to install XO in the first place What if a 3rd party installed is installing XO in the incorrect way? We have already many messages to deal with, adding potential 3rd party installer would make it even harder for us regarding our community support

    This can happen since using the sources means also experiment some bugs, while on XOA, you should be safer because we do QA before each release. If you want stability and a production grade solution, go for XOA Anyway, the bug is now fixed, get the latest commit on master and try again, it should work!

    @Tristis-Oris said in SMB ISO share can't upload: @mohammadm looks like Truenas related issue. Check the account permissions. if it stop working after XO update, try to rollback previous commit. User – xcp-ng Read | Write | Execute For now I upload the ISO's through Windows SMB. Because it is accessible from XOA. Only uploading is not working.
