    @florent Thanks for your reply! We have started to migrate thousands of VMs, so disk transfer speed is important for us.. We will also do our detailed tests soon with different threads setting and publish it here. I think threads=1 is a good and logical default, but not efficient. Others might complain if you set it to a higher value. Configuration option would be a real good solution.

    I get this error with each metadata backup run, but every time it fail on different pool. Only 1 failed pool at once. [image: 1782727042952-aa7af767-9150-4e99-a483-5d02524678bb-image.jpeg]

    Hello I'm pulling stats for all VMs to understand CPU usage. We're a bit behind the curve in terms of XO versions, but these questions hopefully are still relevant. If using a granularity of days, the interval is set to 86400 (understandably) but the endTimestamp varies. Running this on June 9th @ ~1740 we get timestamps for both Mon Jun 8 01:00:00 AM BST 2026 and Tues Jun 9 01:00:00 AM BST 2026. Does this average across the day? Why is the timestamp 0100? Why would there be different timestamps between VMs (all are running) and does that mean that the figures are misaligned in the results? These are retrieved via curl and a bash script, a bit hacky, but for clarity the request is: ++ curl -X GET -s -H accept:application/json -b authenticationToken=[[REDACTED]] -o [[REDACTED]] 'https://[[REDACTED]]/rest/v0/vms/[[REDACTED]]/stats?granularity=days' Really keen to know if we can control the start and endtime, as well as provide a manual interval, as well as the aggregation strategy (min, max, average). Are any of these possible? Lastly, is cpuUsage the percentage as per the dashboard, but averaged over all CPUs? Thanks so much in advance. James

    The Kubernetes CSI driver for Xen Orchestra just hit v0.4.0, and we want it on more real clusters before it reaches a stable release candidate. If you run Kubernetes on XCP-ng VMs, this is a good time to give it a proper workout. What's new in v0.4.0: Local-storage support Automatic pool-discovery fallback Kubernetes metadata now lives in Xen Orchestra VDI tags instead of the deprecated other_config. That change also drops the old requirement for Xen Orchestra 6.4 or newer, so the driver runs on more deployments now. ️ Read this before you upgrade. v0.4.0 is a breaking change. The Kubernetes metadata moved from other_config to VDI tags, so you must migrate before upgrading from v0.3.0. Do not upgrade in place: follow the v0.3.0 to v0.4.0 migration guide in the release notes, then move to v0.4.0. What helps us most is hearing how it behaves on your own setup: what works, what breaks, which storage backend you use, and which flavour of Kubernetes you run (k3s, full k8s, or something else). Edge cases on real clusters are the ones we don't see in our own testing. Where to report: start right here in this thread. It keeps everything visible to the community and lets others on the same setup jump in. If something turns out to be a reproducible bug, we'll move it to a GitHub issue on the repo so the team can track it to a fix. Release notes and migration guide: https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-csi-driver/releases/tag/v0.4.0

    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.

    That's correct. It's the new "reference" for the following delta, so we need to be able to read the full when we restore the backup (or a file) or when we coalesce (when reaching the retention). That's why compressing the full isn't trivial.

    Wouldn't that support something like doesn't match pattern? I got similar monitoring, although i have a custom script that does the check but essentially i just look for status being successand if not, then alert.

    Same here with a German keyboard where backshlashes require using the AltGR key. With most other (especially when cascaded) remove viewers, hitting Ctr, Alt and AlgGr keys alone helps to get shift states back in order, but not here. BTW I also noted that hitting the RDP button, didn't lauch RDP, just lost the mouse but not they keyboard, which is also rather strange.

    It's an RDP URL available in your browser. You need to have configured your browser with a working app to link the rdp:// URL to your remote desktop application.
