    @poddingue there is a notion of appliance too (group of VMs) https://docs.xcp-ng.org/appendix/cli_reference/#appliance-commands where you can start/stop a group of VMs, never tried it, doesn't seem to have a boot order in the vAPP neither

    @gcpeters4 said: @john.c This is a good idea as well. If the previous suggestion of trying to do a DNS round robin approach doesn't work, this may be my best option. Thanks for taking the time to provide your suggestion! By the way my suggestion is recommended best practice from Microsoft for their Active Directory software and/or technology. My suggestion will be more likely to work if your DNS servers and requests have issues with Round Robin configuration. Plus with my solution you can easily add more servers as domain controllers to the cluster, as required and use replication to keep them consistent and up to date.

    hello there, still XOA 6.3.3 here. since the last big XObackup & CR reworking, we have an annoying bug [image: 1778328477250-6db625da-2a61-4860-bc50-5c6adae0ae33-image.jpeg] This VM is 2.17Tb [image: 1778328523117-bc28b5ef-f37d-4bf9-b016-921309c17353-image.jpeg] how can be the KEY is 9.1Gb ? In fact the KEY size is good, but when retention of 10 points is obtained, the merging of last incremental in the first KEY point of the chain erase the size. So in our restore view, data sizes are all wrong, based on the sum of this key + 9 inc [image: 1778328703332-2e0a1587-365a-404f-9186-2b909605b3fa-image.jpeg] @florent could you do something about that ?

    @afk I’ve got two draft nixpkgs for libvhdi and Xen orchestra from sources respectively, I’ll look into submitting them upstream soon but take a look and feel free to share any feedback xen-orchestra-ce libvhdi.

    @Danp I am using warm migration based on past experience, where we have already migrated more than four hundred virtual machines without any incident. This function of migrating only the VDI within the same pool is rarely used in our environment. Regarding SMlog, Orquestra Xen presented the error at 22:58:08 on May 15th, below is SMlog data around that time: May 15 22:58:07 SDE-RK8-R6525-P01-H01 SM: [22357] lock: opening lock file

    XO does not pause backups during upgrades/restart, all currently running backups will be interrupted as @olivierlambert said. An interrupted backup is not a big problem by itself, nothing will be broken, and the next run will run properly. Backups are only run at the time they are scheduled, if XO is offline at this time, it will not automatically run them when restarted, it will wait for the next scheduled run.

    Preventing "new network" detection on different XCP-NG hosts

    @fohdeesha said in Preventing "new network" detection on different XCP-NG hosts: @Zevgeny As you suspected, this is caused by the VMs booting with new & fresh MAC addresses they've never seen before, which from their point of view means an entirely new NIC. The "clean" solution here would be to have an option or toggle inside of XOA backup jobs, that allows MAC addresses to be preserved - this way the replicated DR VMs on the backup site still have the same MAC addresses. This could be something you could file as a feature request on our github However note that pretty much any VM copy/replicate action will trigger xen to generate a new MAC address (for safety, duplicated MACs are usually bad). This means that even if the MAC is preserved to the DR VMs, when your admin copies the DR VMs and boots them, the new copies will have newly generated MACs. I suppose it would be possible to add a "preserve MAC" checkbox for copy operations too, but I'm not sure if XAPI currently exposes such functionality. Yea, keeping the mac adress would really solve this. We actually edit the mac adress manually on the copied VM's incase we need to start the DR copy up for testing.

    @manilx 2 more and yes seems to be confusing and just to round it up. Same VM as above Delta (full) backup using NBD without and with "nconnect=6" in the remote setting: [image: 1714397312022-screenshot-2024-04-29-at-14.27.19.png] with nconnect=6 [image: 1714397346566-screenshot-2024-04-29-at-14.28.57.png] nconnect=6 doesn't seem to do a lot.

    Your pre-recorded Cloudconfig own setup is user-wide (so per user). It won't be universal for everyone.

    @gb-123 Yes, I have tried that and it appears to have deleted the tasks. First I had to register as follows: # xo-cli --register <URL of XOA> <admin username> <password> Then: # xo-cli rest get tasks which showed a list of tasks IDs. I verified the IDs with the ID show in the raw log for each of the tasks listed in XOA. Once I figured out which task(s) I wanted to delete, I did the following for each tasks: # xo-cli rest del <tasks/task ID> I have not seen an ill effects since I deleted some tasks last August. Below is a link to removing tasks using xo-cli: https://help.vates.tech/kb/en-us/31-troubleshooting-and-tips/123-how-to-remove-xo-tasks

    @Pyroteq said in Easy way to find a failed task?: It seems as soon as you refresh the page everything disappears. The Tasks page only shows logs while you're viewing it. Afterwards I think they get recorded to the Logs, but if your system fell asleep XO wouldn't know what happened. Besides the connection getting dropped and I don't know if that would get recorded.

    @wttw said in OVA import support?: @olivierlambert said in OVA import support?: Yes it's supposed to work. Sadly, there's as much as different OVAs than VMs and VMware versions. Every time we are fixing new stuff when it's reported. Please provide the OVA somewhere so we can find why and fix it https://tupid.org/debian11.ova - it's about 850MB. I just created this on ESXi 7.0U3, then exported it with ./ovftool --noSSLVerify --diskMode=thin --targetType=ova --compress=9 "vi://skull/debian11" . (VMware ovftool 4.6.2 (build-22220919)) Import from VMware should work if you have indeed the XCP-ng machine in extra for it. The hardware is on order, but I thought I'd start testing this weekend. But we could fix the OVA already, at least as soon we can check what's wrong with the XML. Here's debian11.ovf, for anyone who wants to look without downloading the ova. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!--Generated by VMware ESX Server, User: root, UTC time:
