    @poddingue I'm using XOA 6.2.2. Unfortunately not able to update at the moment. Which reminds me of another thing. Where is there release information for the XOA XVA itself? When I login to my account, there is only the download button but no information on what version it is. [image: image.jpeg] I would like to know when a new version is published and a changelog for it. When I import the current XVA it is tagged with 2025.12 [image: image.jpeg]

    I ran into the same problem with DR replicas. Ignoring VMs by tag would solve the problem, but so would excluding the ip address information.

    @bug-meister Ah. That's cloud-init's support for templating user-data. The issue is that with these templates you only have access to the info available inside the VM itself. No outside data can be used for templating unless it is somehow passed to the VM (inject a file, set xenstore values...)

    @olivierlambert There are lots of messages about: unable to parse XAPI datetime "2023-03-01T12:41:47.000Z" But nothing about the upgrade process. I was able to upgrade hosts 2+3 without any problem - but not automatically

    @manilx I updated XO to the latest release (Updating Xen Orchestra from '63ee6b7f0' to '84e38505c') and tried again: Worked! BUT with this new release I have the following issue: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/7020/metadata-backups-suddenly-failing

    @olivierlambert to not create new topic, small continue here. timeout option still ignored. probably because of network problems i got backup error and job hangs every day. doesn't matter why it happens, but job will never get terminated by timeout. 21h job with 7h timeout. https://pastebin.com/U5HgKEzM just 1 Gb.

    @cookie-eater2000 make sure your Xen Orchestra also has a connection on the 10GB network (IP address on the xo vm)

    @olivierlambert I do not understand wha t you mean by "You probably need to transform the disk in a "regular" and not snapshot". Not sure on how to do that, please provide the steps or if you have SOP ready, please point me to the SOP document.

    I don't see any obvious settting, and XCP-ng won't interfere with a guest OS installation, so the root cause for this missing GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true must be somewhere in the installation process, triggered by I-don't-know-what when being installed in an XCP-ng guest.

    @magicker If you are able to deploy an official XOA and reproduce the problem in it, I'll be able to investigate once you open a support tunnel: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/xoa.html#support-tunnel

    Hi, The best practice is just to connect XOA to the master. You are thinking as if this situation will happen on regular basis, but it won't, and if it does you have a bigger problem than an XOA disconnection. If you have a backup job with email reporting, you'll be notified if XOA lost connection to the pool. There's nothing specific to do.

    Yes, you need to get them flat in the folder, it doesn't crawl subfolders.

    Very likely indeed. We hope to recreate the XO website from scratch at some point, but it doesn't mean we'll let this slip Thanks a lot for the report, adding @Marc-pezin in the loop
