    @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.

    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

    That's the issue. Why they don't have it is the problem/mystery. Try to check if new replicated VMs got it. If not, I would check if you are correctly up to date.

    @joearnon The browser javascript logs may give you useful information about what issue happened during the import as seen from XO's side. However the disappearing SR issue makes me think you should look at XCP-ng logs, in particular /var/log/SMLog for storage-related logs and /var/log/daemon.log.

    @jsawyer77 Did you follow the documentation when building XO? If not, then what process did you use? Also, check to see if libvhdi-utils is installed and which version.

    @olivierlambert You inadvertently solved this one, too, n parallel with @tony . So, basically, as suspected, a template is nothing more than populating stuff that's in the basic and advanced webforms on Orchestra, anyway.

    There's a 1 min cache on XO's side. So if the updates weren't showing up for more than 1 minute, then it might be something else.

    @olivierlambert said in Backup failure: HTTP request has been canceled: It's a problem when XO tries to get address from your srv02.xxx.com. It just makes no sense that DNS would be an issue on this network. I guess if XO momentarilly looses connection during DNS lookup it could cause this problem. I've noticed sometimes that the webui of XOA sometimes can show red ? if I start live several live migrations. Maybe unrelated?

    That's probably since using more your cores (now there's a dedicated thread backup job).

    @thorcraftit seems like perhaps a permissions error, what does your share properties on truenas look like for this host? Is the allowed IP or denied IP boxes populated at all? Attach a screenshot if you can. Here's what mine looks like: [image: 1625573743330-f76ebeef-c5cf-452e-8a43-28144d9a8c94-image.png] Note that the mapall user and group must have permissions on the shared folder, I typically create a user on the freenas system just for xen shares, and give it ownership of the folder/dataset that's being shared. this ensures you don't have any weird permissions issues. I think in your case the key boxes to examine are the authorized networks however. What does your Services > NFS > Settings look like? here's mine: [image: 1625573851182-3ccf191c-575c-4094-b91f-b4e12e6a4091-image.png] Lastly and perhaps most importantly, can you run "yum install nmap" and then "nmap 172.16.60.200" on both a working host, and then this non-working host? Paste the results of both here - if they differ, for instance if the non-working server doesn't see any RPC services running like I suspect, that will heavily point towards a firewall/network/ACL issue

    @cfm56 The error was probably due to https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/5836 This did not impact the import of the config though, anyway it should be fixed now trader418 created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed Config restore error #5836
