    XO 6.7.0 went out on 30 July, and the changelog carries Bastien's fix under Backups as "Fix failed status on successful retry", pointing at PR https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/10129 and back at this thread: https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xen-orchestra-6-7/. Given what you said about keeping the backup XOA on a version you trust, I would not rush it, but that is the version to look for when you do move. I have not exercised the retry path myself, so if a retried VM still reports the job as failed after you upgrade, it is worth saying so here.

    @poddingue Borrow away - "smoke alarm" is a better name for it than anything we had, so we might borrow it right back. Since you mentioned reading the matrix - here is the classification you would be reading, straight from the file: grep access: dadl/xen-orchestra.dadl | sort | uniq -c 49 access: admin 21 access: dangerous 122 access: read 75 access: write 122 of the 267 tools are plain read - that is the entire surface a review-capped agent gets. The other 145 exist in the same file, but for that agent they might as well not. The whole security taxonomy is greppable plaintext - which is rather the point of a declarative format. And if anything in the matrix looks wrong or missing, this thread is exactly the right place - real-world corrections are how it improves.

    New releases! Terraform Provider Xen Orchestra v0.40.0 This new release allows users to import VMs directly from Xen Orchestra into Terraform without recreating it or modifying manually the Terraform state. There is still some drift when importing it, but nothing that changes the real state of VM and we are currently on it! https://github.com/vatesfr/terraform-provider-xenorchestra/releases/tag/v0.40.0 Golang SDK for Xen Orchestra v1.17.0 v2 The network service is now available from the v2 client! You can now create, get and delete your network directly from it! v1 & v2 The template value in VM struct params has been fixed, We can now get the template id directly from it. https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-go-sdk/releases/tag/v1.17.0

    @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

    But what about merging delta backup? This require write access. Except if we completely "move" the merge logic in the storage itself (which will be possible in few months)

    That's because of XCP-ng/XenServer design. The host isn't pushing data, it's only exposing an HTTP handler to pull from it. You can use XO Proxies if you prefer: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/proxy.html

    Hi! That's is possible, you just need to shutdown all VMs using disks in there. Then, 4 steps: 0. Find the PBD currently connected to this SR via xe pbd-list Save the PBD information somewhere (xe pbd-param-list uuid=<PBD UUID> Unplug and remove the PBD (xe pbd-unplug and xe pbd-destroy Recreate the PBD by just changing the information using xe pbd-create In short, the PBD is like the "cable" between your host and your SR. Removing it won't remove any actual data, just the link between them. If you recreate it, and replug it, you'll find everything back

    It doesn't work like Citrix patches. Xen Orchestra will send a XAPI command to the host, that will in fact do a yum update command. The result is returned to XO and it will display available updates. We got a system using the best mirror for you: https://xcp-ng.org/docs/mirrors.html#original-mirror

    Hi, Please open a support ticket, that would be easier to assist (you can also open a support tunnel so we can remotely access your XOA to investigate faster, see https://help.vates.fr/kb/en-us/9-xen-orchestra-appliance-xoa/16-create-a-support-tunnel ) edit: don't forget to go in XOA/Support then doing an XOA check, see https://help.vates.fr/kb/en-us/9-xen-orchestra-appliance-xoa/17-xoa-check
