    @edsilber Yeah I'm not really sure, I also assumed that cron (and XO would use the cron pattern for months). Clearly it doesn't. Using AT on the CLI of your host/pool should work (I imagine). But yeah having a "Run Now" function in XO would be killer.

    I've been have a re-occurring issue where my backups get stuck when attempting the transfer part of the health check. I'm using XO from sources. Currently on commit 54459, but this issue has persisted over multiple updates. It's not always the same VM(s) each time. The remote target is a TrueNAS box sharing via Samba. The health checks are set to transfer to a HDD directly on the host. I do have the time out option configured for 3 hours, but that seems to be being ignored at this point. I usually just restart the xo-server service and then retry the failed ones, but at this point I seem to have to do that after every backup. Example: [image: 1761779483775-c21d124c-3903-48a9-9e0e-8cfc5a3e36a0-image.png]

    I was curious if there had been any updates to mounting ISOs via the API? Thanks.

    Sadly, it's hard to know what happened without getting the errors you had (eg when you tell: "VM will not start" is very vague).

    @jivanpal Right; I simply meant you could start using these to track from this point onward. Also other options, like Cacti, MRTG, etc.

    @olivierlambert said in Managing different locations from one XO?: The code is open source but you need to install it and configure it yourself (if you are using XO from Github) OK, that makes sense.

    @Andrew it seems that the merge fails but the watcher still report progress ( which doesn't move) Can you see if there is an error before ?

    You can't add a host into another pool until it's "blank". It's hard to "merge" two pools together. So first, migrate VMs to the destination, clean the host and THEN add it to the pool.

    No need to update XCP-ng, we don't want to introduce a dedicated agent. It will rely on another mechanism. We'll publish about it before the end of this summer

    XO 5.72 Storage Maintenance

    @geoffbland Hi, thanks for the reply... That's what I wound up doing, installing XO from source on a Raspberry PI that I had. I used it to restore my XO image from backup, once I did that I had to restore all of my guests (12 of them total). I could never figure out how to get my SR out of maintenance mode, so I wound up creating a new SR and restored each backup to the new SR. All back to normal after restoring the backup. Thank god XO backup works so well! I learned the hard way that I need to move my XO disks to local storage before I enter maintenance mode for my iSCSI SR... Oh well, lesson learned!

    Hi @olivierlambert we have just come across the same issue again today after the latest update. Please see below the log file for the delta backup schedule that performed full backups instead. I can't seem to find anything in the logs to help. 2022-07-12T16_00_00.013Z-backupNG.txt

    @pdonias said in Netbox Plugin Enhancements: Why do you have those interfaces? Could you explain your use case and why they're not visible in XO? Sorry, you're right, hosts are not synced for a simple reason: there is no such thing as host types in Netbox (or did we miss something?). So we only group VMs by pools (clusters) and that's it. Those interfaces are for example wireguard interfaces or any other virtual interfaces. Obv they are not in xo because they are virtual, but in netbox they are needed because I deploy all my wireguard stuff with them. The host thing already was answered, there are devices which you then can link to Pools. KR Peter
