    In case anyone wonders how this played out. At the end of the day, I shutdown the host with the running workloads on it, kept it at BIOS boot so the 8.3 installer would upgrade it cleanly, and then booted it back up. For reasons related to my particular setup, the down time was more than 60 minutes. But that's not related to XCP-ng. The XCP-ng installer was maybe 10 of that. 20 of that was 3 reboots on a server that takes ages to boot. One thing that is a bit difficult is that the 8.3 installer doesn't notice ZFS volumes or help with ZFS. So after the upgrade, I have to follow a modified set of these instructions (modified because the package names have changed over time) to install ZFS and its components into the system. So the sequence is: Shutdown Install via ISO Reboot to single user mode Run yum update to pull in all the updates Run the ZFS commands to install ZFS on the host Reboot again Run normally Of course, I ended up rebooting more than just those 2 times, because I forgot that I would need to install ZFS (even though I did it on 2 different hosts already ) So now the pool is fully upgraded, everybody is happy. I'm now working on creating shared storage across the nodes. It's amateur hour over here. I appreciate all the help.

    @julien-f said in XOA Proxy Error when updating: @bullerwins XO Proxy Appliance deployment is not supported in XO built from sources. my bad, it used to work a few months back I believe @olivierlambert said in XOA Proxy Error when updating: I missed that in the original message, indeed FYI @bullerwins there's no such thing as XOA built from sources, you have either: XOA is Xen Orchestra virtual Appliance, that's the VM we distribute with pro support and QA/stable channel, updater and such XO from the sources is from Github, without pro support but community support, no QA no stable version, no udpater and such Thanks, I got confused with the naming, I'm using the second option. As a workaround I used a VPN to manage the remote XCP-ng host, thanks!

    I can't follow what's done in 3rd party scripts, and it might be not trivial to find problems with them (if it's a problem due to the script or not). But before pointing any finger (I don't like that ) I would prefer to check with a fully up to date XOA on latest release channel and see if you have the same issue. At least, we'll be able to compare the behavior

    Hi, I'm not aware of such feature on our side, you should ask AWS on how to import a XenServer/XCP-ng VM into EC2.

    Quick note: XOA is for our Xen Orchestra virtual Appliance. You are using XO from the sources So it's just "XO". Anyway, indeed, it seems that your forever service isn't able to kill the process therefore, keep it.

    So what you need is more something like backup tiering (or secondary backup). This feature is currently a work in progress by @florent

    It means one VM got a backup job that's not in your current XO. Are you sure you restored your previous XO config?

    @olivierlambert ok. For info: xo-server 5.113.0 / xo-web 5.116.1 Installed this version XO yesterday and tried a smart reboot with 14 vm's running. Windows and linux vm's. Of which some linux vm's have NFS shares which I use for ISO files and making backups with XO. These I normally have to disconnect before I can do a reboot of the host otherwise it will not reboot and had expected that this would not be necessary now. It took a very long time for all vm's to enter suspend mode (>2 hours) and the server did not reboot. Probably ran into not shutting down the NFS shares. I finish much faster if I manually shut down all vm's (and disconnect the NFS shares) reboot the host and restart the vm's. But maybe I am overlooking something then I would like to hear about it.

    You may need to extend the partition first using growpart.
