    @paco On the stuck server, could you warm migrate the vms to one of the other hosts? Or could you shut down a VM at a time and cold migrate them? The second option is certainly not ideal, but maybe?

    Hi, Latest XOA, with fully patched XCP 8.3 here. I'm fiddling around again with NBD+CBT in backup jobs (was avoiding CBT for a time, to reliably control my backups and avoid unnecessary KEY points) in the context of THICK SRs to spare some space. I know that CBT is reset when migrating from one SR to another. But here is what I encounter : VM has no CBT enabled on its VDIs, it is on a SHARED SR in a pool of 3 hosts backup option changed for NBD+CBT, was only NBD before CBT is enabled on the next run by the backup job, I get a delta (was expecting a FULL ?) next run, delta, as expected i migrate this VM on another HOST, without changing its SR CBT is immediatly disabled ? why ?? next run of backup it tries a delta, but "fall back to a full" (normal as CBT has been disabled...), and do a KEY point on the remote next run is a delta as expected does this mean if I do a rolling pool update or host maintenance that will move the all VMs around, all CBT will be disabled and I should expect a FALL BACK TO FULL on all my NBD+CBT enabled backup jobs ??! why disabling CBT on a change of HOST and no move of SR ?

    @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

    VDI to coalesce number should decrease over time yes. If it's not, you might have a coalesce issue in your storage, check the /var/log/SMlog in the relevant host (master for shared storage, the host attached to its local storage otherwise). Rescan will scan for the LV/VHD files. But coalesce is automatically checked/started every 5 minutes. Coalesce can take time (depending on SR read/write and quantity to "merge"). Next releases will have a visible task for pending coalesce (next major XCP-ng release). Until then, you can do a ps axf | grep coalesce to see if there's something happening.

    Something is maybe interfering with websockets. Have you tried in private mode in case there's a problem with your cookies? If you have pro support, that might be the right time to open a support ticket so we can assist you remotely

    @olivierlambert XO and XO Proxy are using the same code and the same backup workers to run backup jobs. If there are differences in perf, IMHO, they come from the appliances themselves and/or their networks. Keep in mind that data flows from the host, via XO or XO proxy, to the remote storage. Maybe the proxy is further from the host and/or the remote regarding the network?

    Ok, I'll look into it some more. Right now, I'm just looking for XOCE to be hosted in the XOSTOR to avoid any issues with an NFS in my homelab going down. I have a spare M.2 NVME in each host that I can use, I'm pretty sure that my XOCE isn't very big.
