    @Razor_648 While I was writing my previous message, I have been reminded that there are also issues with LVHDoISCSI SR and CBT, you should disable CBT on your backup job and on all VDI on the SR. It might help with the issue.

    I have a couple Delta backups that target the same remote. Yesterday I set up a Mirror backup between that remote and another remote. When I ran the Mirror backup yesterday, it was successful. Today 7 of the VMs succeed in the backup but 5 of them fail with: Missing vdi <guid> which is a base for a delta Could this be caused by the fact that the target for the Mirror backup used to be a target for the Delta backup so it has files on it already. Do I need to purge the folder entirely? I thought maybe that would give it a head start and the reason I'm using the Mirror backup is because the Delta backup used to fail randomly on random VMs when backing up to both remotes. How would I go about diagnosing this? I assume since the guid for the vdi is missing, it's going to be hard for me to find since I can't find something that's missing. Alternatively, maybe it's because it's currently a weird mix of old Delta backups and new Mirror backups and maybe over the next few days it will purge enough old stuff that it will start working cleanly. Should I delete the entire remote target of the Mirror to get it started cleanly? Or, more likely, delete all backups on that Mirror for the 5 VMs that failed with this error.

    @StephenAOINS This endpoint is not currently present in our REST API swagger, but we do plan to add it to the list of endpoints. We are currently finalizing the migration of existing endpoints, the next step will be adding new ones. We will keep you informed when it is available.

    @ITJamie Alma Linux 8.5 template is finished and should be added to the hub in the next day or two. I should have Rocky Linux done shortly after that. Note that in CentOS/RHEL related distros, the hostname: {name}% parameter that's filled in under the cloud-init config is not enough to change the hostname for the machine, CentOS (and related) expects a fully qualified domain name. To get the newly spawned VM have the hostname you'd like, supply fqdn parameter as well: use VM name as hostname: #cloud-config hostname: {name}% fqdn: {name}%.localdomain.local use custom hostname: #cloud-config hostname: testvm fqdn: testvm.localdomain.local

  • Windows VM cannot boot, cannot insert ISO

    @mauzilla To boot an ISO in a VM, you need to select "DVD" in the boot order, put it first, and hit "Save". Then boot the VM. For ANY system (real or VM), you need boot it with the same type of bootstrap as it was installed to use. BIOS or UEFI. If you change the boot type then you have to make the OS ready to use the new/different settings (not just a VM problem). If you created a Windows image from a working system that booted with UEFI then you have to copy ALL partitions (the whole disk), not just the C windows drive.

    Hi, first of all, thank you for developing and supporting these awesome products. I witnessed a similar issue upon running continuous replication on a VM after growing one of the disks on the source side. I run delta backup to a NFS share and continuous replication to another XCP-ng host in one job. The most important part of the relevant log messages remind me of this issue - this topic is the only similar reference I was able to find, so I hope this is the right place to post. If not, please let me know, and I'll create a new topic Mar 21 01:00:29 xcp-ng-2 xapi: [ info||8947241 INET :::80|Importing raw VDI R:3967654dad6b|vhd_tool_wrapper] Executing /bin/vhd-tool serve --source-format vhd --source-protocol none --source-fd 1f47b1fe-a9ea-4bda-ab8e-2101e5677059 --tar-filename-prefix --destination file:///dev/sm/backend/f7aca870-12e0-8352-9f86-f52d575eb313/6cd16448-6839-476d-93b1-2f8b816c827f --destination-format raw --progress --machine --direct --destination-size 0 --prezeroed Mar 21 01:00:29 xcp-ng-2 xapi: [error||8947241 INET :::80|Importing raw VDI R:3967654dad6b|vhd_tool_wrapper] vhd-tool failed, returning VDI_IO_ERROR Mar 21 01:00:29 xcp-ng-2 xapi: [error||8947241 INET :::80|Importing raw VDI R:3967654dad6b|vhd_tool_wrapper] vhd-tool output: vhd-tool: Non-zero size required (either a pre-existing destination file or specified via --destination-size on the command line)\x0A I'm currently running Xen Orchestra compiled from sources, on commit 5bc44363f9ac9fa534f3247e697f1b3c6991e916. XCP-ng is on version 8.2.0. I know that this is not fully up-to-date, but after retrying that backup as a first measure, Xen Orchestra ran a full backup for that VM, so I can't reproduce that issue anymore, but I figured posting that here might help resolving the aforementioned issue, if the causes correlate.

    FYI, we modified the deploy script to be able to automatically modify XOA's VIF to run on the management network. So even in case of using only bonded networks like @Low351, this will now work.

    @davidg said in Dashboard Health gives 'an error has occurred': 5.58.1 That's ancient, so not a valid comparison. It's likely that a recent commit has broken something that they will eventually identify / fix.

    @olivierlambert We are using rrd2csv to get host cpu stats into SQL to provide nice Grafana page sorted by pool. It would be nice to dial even further down to the vm's that are running high cpu or have memory burden.

    That's correct. There's no more updates, that's why you MUST upgrade to 8.2 (see https://xcp-ng.org/docs/releases.html#all-releases )

    @wade_solarch Short answer: try to avoid that. Back in the old XenServer days, you had to manually change the cpu feature flags so it would work at all. https://xcp-ng.org/docs/requirements.html#pool-requirements This confirms that you can't mix Intel & AMD in a pool https://xcp-ng.org/docs/requirements.html#pool-requirements This explains Heterogeneous pools a little
