    I have two PE R630 and one PE R730xd. The two R630s show the IPMI data in XO but the R730xd does not. If I run ipmitool sensor from an ssh session, I get very similar data back on the 730 and 630. This isn't critical to me, just letting you know that there are cases that functioning ipmitool on a Dell does not seem to be enough to show it. There are some differences in the labels. The R730 has "Fan1 RPM", "Fan2 RPM" while the R630 has "Fan1A", "Fan2A", "Fan1B". Most of the other interesting fields seem to have the same names but the order is a bit different and I didn't do an exhaustive comparison. It's very cool that you are surfacing this data now.

    Version 1.4.0 is released: https://codeberg.org/NiXOA/system/releases/tag/v1.4.0 It includes significant changes and improvements, including: dedicated getting started section, migration to valkey, only needing to clone system, and helper scripts. the xen-orchestra-ce nixpkg now references the libvhdi nixpkg, and the core flake now references and pulls from the xen-orchestra-ce repo as an overlay. System (the user input flake) now uses the Core repo as an overlay, reducing the need to clone both locally AND allowing system to pull new updates and releases from core. XO, and libvhdi as needed. The next goal is: Make an xsconsole-like TUI Automate package updates for libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce using CI/CD pipelines Submit libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce as official nixpkgs

    Sorry for the huge delay, I just stumbled on this thread It's indeed the case now, XO automatically check the integrity and clean any unused files in VM directory on a remote when that VM is backed up.

    @olivierlambert said in Commands in Xen Orchestra Jobs no longer working: The best solution is to rely on XOA, you know I agree with @olivierlambert! Personally, I'm using XO from sources in my home lab environment -- nothing is "production" and I'm mostly having fun trying to give back to the open source community.

    @Danp - thank you. Yes, I did, but that was not helping in this case. Found the solution: Both machines are on a hostserver, which has NOT all networks. So the real reason must be a network problem, therefore a quite missleading error message After moving both VMs to the master of this pool (which is connected to the same network where the xoa resides), everything went fine. Same storage, same vhds.

    @indyj The file restore issue was due to installing XO on FreeBSD (fine for VM restores, not file extraction). I then installed XO on Ubuntu 20, and this worked for restoring files from Linux VMs but not Windows VMs. Then I installed on CentOS 8 and had the same problem as Ubuntu. I then installed on Fedora 34 and everthing works fine.

    Yes, it should be safe enough to try importing the backup, then starting the VM without network (ie VIFs) and see if it stays up for a few minutes. I think we could start by adding a manual feature and then see in a second step how we could automate it.

    @olivierlambert many thanks for the very quick response, it is indeed XO from sources. I think the burst explanation makes sense. Also, thanks for you and your teams continued development and support with both XCP-NG and XO.

    What do you mean "how it works"? It's the same thing than before, just "isolated" from the rest, working in a... worker. And yes, the long run objective is the ability to run it as a service on the remote directly, reducing a lot the merge time (because latency is the worst enemy of merging).

    Backup does not work if one host in the pool is offline

    @olivierlambert said in Backup does not work if one host in the pool is offline: When you connect to a working, machine, yes it does But XAPI connection isn't persistent: it means, when the pool is disconnected, XO has no recollection whatsoever on who was the "real" master the last time it was connected. The only info we store is the IP address you entered in Settings/server. I agree, functionally speaking, it can be limiting in your case. A viable option would be to save all existing hosts IPs in the XO database, as fallback if we can't connect to the IP you entered. This is not a very common case, that's why it wasn't done before Looks like a good suggestion. Thanks. In my case I migrated everything from the poolmaster to the second host, then changed the second host to pool master, waited an hour and then shut down the old pool master (now just a pool member). XOA was online during the entire process and I had forgotten to check the server list.

    Hi ! We are experiencing these kind of problems because we activated Continous Replication and frequency was way too low. Now I want to eliminate all those files in the chain, can I do it manually from XCP-NG Center or XOA ? Thanks !!! [image: 1635327169557-c2aa1fb3-2ed2-41cf-b242-e2a23e6832e4-image.png]
