    Veeam scheduled a remote call with me and pulled more log files. Of coarse when we ran the backup job twice in a row both times al vms were successful. Veeam needs to baby sit our backups :). The call was cut short do to internet going down. I have uploaded the logs and waiting to hear back.

    @poddingue Borrow away - "smoke alarm" is a better name for it than anything we had, so we might borrow it right back. Since you mentioned reading the matrix - here is the classification you would be reading, straight from the file: grep access: dadl/xen-orchestra.dadl | sort | uniq -c 49 access: admin 21 access: dangerous 122 access: read 75 access: write 122 of the 267 tools are plain read - that is the entire surface a review-capped agent gets. The other 145 exist in the same file, but for that agent they might as well not. The whole security taxonomy is greppable plaintext - which is rather the point of a declarative format. And if anything in the matrix looks wrong or missing, this thread is exactly the right place - real-world corrections are how it improves.

    New releases! Terraform Provider Xen Orchestra v0.40.0 This new release allows users to import VMs directly from Xen Orchestra into Terraform without recreating it or modifying manually the Terraform state. There is still some drift when importing it, but nothing that changes the real state of VM and we are currently on it! https://github.com/vatesfr/terraform-provider-xenorchestra/releases/tag/v0.40.0 Golang SDK for Xen Orchestra v1.17.0 v2 The network service is now available from the v2 client! You can now create, get and delete your network directly from it! v1 & v2 The template value in VM struct params has been fixed, We can now get the template id directly from it. https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-go-sdk/releases/tag/v1.17.0

    @poltushima As there is no S3 support in Azure Blob Storage, no you can't use XO for direct backup to Azure. There are S3 proxy projects (here's one) that could make it work.

    Depends on what you expect from "manage", but once a template is deployed (or recipe applied), it's all regular VMs.

    I think using a script for an initial test is OK, but if you want to really use it, it's better to follow our documentation and following the per-requisites by the book.

    @Danp Hi everyone. That "n 18" did it for me. My Xen Orchestra would not hold the connection, with the same "http connection time out". Thanks a bunch Regards Marc

    In essence, you can write any script you like in your VM that would be executed, test whatever you want in the database, and if it's OK, write a special key in the XenStore. XO will detect it and consider the backup health check done and working

    What kind of backups are these? Incremental (delta), full, etc..? I think that'll help determining the issue, I had something similar once specifically with an incremental and was able to fix it. May not be related though since that was a while ago and on stable release channel for XOA.

    Hmmmmm I need to look back through some of my old posts and notes but I had a similar issue with a VM with large number of disks. The disks themselves being big wasn't the issue, it was just having a huge number of them that eventually cased a problem. Ended up migrating by moving a single VHD and rebuilding things (the specific system didn't really "need" all the VHDs so it was an easy fix for me, wouldn't be the case here haha). If you are trying to reduce the number of hosts though, why would migrating the VCSA help? If you're powering off a host then wouldn't you not need the VCSA to be running anyway? Or do you have more than 1 ESXi instance? Might be easiest to just migrate it to another ESXi host if that's the goal, since you won't need the VCSA once you fully move to XCP-ng (assuming you are doing so).
