    @poddingue I'm using XOA 6.2.2. Unfortunately not able to update at the moment. Which reminds me of another thing. Where is there release information for the XOA XVA itself? When I login to my account, there is only the download button but no information on what version it is. [image: image.jpeg] I would like to know when a new version is published and a changelog for it. When I import the current XVA it is tagged with 2025.12 [image: image.jpeg]

    I ran into the same problem with DR replicas. Ignoring VMs by tag would solve the problem, but so would excluding the ip address information.

    @bug-meister Ah. That's cloud-init's support for templating user-data. The issue is that with these templates you only have access to the info available inside the VM itself. No outside data can be used for templating unless it is somehow passed to the VM (inject a file, set xenstore values...)

    @dariosplit said in Copy an existing backup: For example in pfsense I copy the firewall rules and change the name of it, and of the port while everything stays the same. I have a lot of VM and for each VM i have several rules for backup, (time and place). I would remove copy it just a unnecessary repeat I have been using tags together with smart backup. This works really well. [image: fae30091-4bd0-46d2-ad3c-f9484c1b7780-image.png] [image: 1b58ebb4-a805-4047-9aec-2f8289785d3c-image.png] [image: 16c62bd0-a6aa-4edd-9312-5234de415235-image.png]

    "Recovery" is only an option for PV guest (not HVM), when you want to re-use the initial bootloader. It has nothing to do to recover anything else. You should be in HVM for all your VMs by the way, it's more secure and even faster.

    @heman said in XO from sources compile warnings: Deprecation Warning: Using / for division is deprecated and will be removed in Dart Sass 2.0.0. FWIW, I see the same warnings. I imagine this is a "known issue" as far as the developers are concerned.

    I think yes (I don't see why, if it's recent enough), but you won't have support in any case (as you'll use the version from the sources anyway).

    @tristis-oris i don’t have a definitive answer what would be the perfect memory configuration for your needs. I commented based on your earlier findings that VM memory usage was high which doesn’t take into account what OS inside VM is doing with the memory. As you observed, most of the memory is used by cache so it basically has nothing to do with XO, just how Linux manages the usable memory.

    @markhewitt1978 We want to involve the users community very early in the design of XO6 and have begun designing an initial questionnaire to submit to you to identify your expectations and current issues - We will later set up a tester program to continue to exchange throughout the process with users who are interested. It's a bit early to share more details, but stay tuned on the December release for XO, we have things in the pipe.

    I've added the support of advanced filtering in the API, it does no have first class support in xo-cli yet but it's usable anyway: xo-cli xo.getAllObjects limit=json:10 filter='type:/^VM$/ snapshots:length:>2'

    Force full backup vs Full backup interval

    @julien-f said in Force full backup vs Full backup interval: @s-pam Essentially the same feature, they force the export of a full backup. Full backup interval forces a full after a number of delta exports. Force full backup forces a full when this specific schedule is ran, which allows for instance to do delta during the week and a full on Sunday. Ah, of course. So I can add a second schedule to the backup job, and in that I choose force full. nice. I did try to search in the https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/backups.html docs for it before asking.

    @adzmedia Hi adzmedia, I can give my nails cut for the fact that this is due to the overall slowness between the xcp-ng and XOA. I've been having similar issue and was pulling my hair, in a usecase where my xcpng was on the other side of the VPN wire, and the virtual console of the VM, could not be drawn on time to allow me hitting any key to run the content within the mounted iso. (in my scenario I I've been using xcp-ng centre) this issue become the relict of the past, when I did the same thing within my network (still over the vpn but utilizing a RDP of the machine within the LAN network). maybe apache quacamole will do the trick for you, to expose some way of reching it out. think about it. ps. I've been having this with BIOS / UEFI, at first place I thouht this is an uefi, but it was not.
