    @cmanos No problem, glad I could helped. As Olivier also pointed above, it's not an issue anymore when using QCOW2 which is currently in beta, so hopefully it's only a short workaround

    @Danp Looking into it looks like VMs were doing full backups everytime when suppose to be delta backups... Let me know where else i can look to verify, but this is what i see when i look at the backups.

    Yes, they are created either: on demand for users when we need in XO 6 Now, XO 6 is becoming the main driver for new endpoint as the UI is providing more and more features.

  • Terraform, Packer or any tool to do IaC

    @carloum70 Disk migration isn't supported by the provider yet. What you can do it's only ignore the changes to the sr_id of a given disk. For example for the first disk: lifecycle { ignore_changes = [ disk[0].sr_id ] } You can also manually do the migration in XO and then after edit your HCL to update the sr_id with the new ID. It should do the trick.

    That's correct, that's why I asked for a spec, so it's easier to build it while knowing exactly what's requested Okay so we can start simple I will make the issue on GH and we'll see how hard it is, to know when we can make it

    @hitechhillbilly What XCP-ng version are you runing? With XOA Premium up-to-date and the Enterprise support plan, I think it is best to open a ticket and let the support team have a look (especially for a productive environment).

    So I think I figured out my issue. The VMs I was importing were reading off the local storage of the ESX server which is a single SSD. Once I started one that was reading off the the storage device, it went much, much faster. I still have an issue with something else on imports, but I will open a ticket since I have support. Thank you for the help.

    @DustinB said in Export list of Backup results (to TXT or CSV): @KPS That might be sufficient for now if you can share it with me. I assume you mean if the backup files are deleted there is nothing to detect, correct? If the backup-files are deleted, the script does still "count" them, as it only parses the logs.

    It is possible to have both AMD and Intel in the same pool. My homelab had it until recently when I upgraded RAM and retired the optiplexes just recently. Live migration will not work, however, shared storage will work. You just have to shutdown the VM and "Start on" the specific host. In the VM Advanced tab.

    @olivierlambert said in Updated Permissions Matrix for XO documentation: Hi! Thanks for your recap, however: ACLs will be massively revamped in the future (but it's already good to have a view at the moment) I'm not sure about the viewer permission regarding VM console I converted that to a Markdown, I did however lose the header column (wasn't really sure how to do that). Anyways let me know what you think, and the Viewer permissions I really wasn't sure what else would be granted, seems like its only meant to generate reports from XO for a given system/host.

    We made the proxy with the smallest attack surface possible, so I would say it's pretty safe. But indeed, and as usual, it's a perpetual balance benefits and costs

    @olivierlambert Yes. Using Cloudbase-init. I'd like to use something like - hostname: uk-xcp-{something} Where {something} is a number that XO keeps track of per group so that for a new VM {something} is unique.

    That's exactly what I said When you create a SR into an NFS path, it will create a new folder with a unique ID (UUID). Then, all vhd files must be there "flat" (no subfolder). Also, the only format working is <uuid>.vhd, nothing else. You can generate an UUID pretty easily with uuidgen.

    @Andrew Thank you Andrew... sorry it took me a while to get back to you. It seems every time I have to go and update Node they change the method you need to do so and it takes me forever to figure out what I'm supposed to do. I still haven't figured that out, but that's on me. However, restarting the toolstack did not fix the issue, but restarting the XO Ubuntu host server did. I've not seen anything like that before, where I've had to reboot the entire host server after applying commits... but if it works, I shall not argue! Thank you again for all of your help. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and a fantastic holiday season.

    @Pechkin000 It should be installed alongside xo-server, it depends how you installed XO on this. But still, it requires root access for security.
