    Well, after a little more digging...I find that this is still not a 'clean' solution imo. I mean, if you're big into APIs....I guess. But, I'd like to see something intuitive in the webUI. Would like to see @julienxovates and @olivierlambert make this a UI feature, instead of a CLI function..or separate URL(swagger) function Thanks!

    Hello @ludalm13, Thanks for your contribution and sorry for not giving an answer earlier. We initially planned to review your PR while doing some additional work on the audit plugin, but our planning evolved and that work was postponed. We'll review your PR in the following days.

    Thanks, that helps. Some VMs fail to the Synology but pass to S3, and some the other way round. So I think the backups on Ark are probably fine (they pass health checks, as you said at the start) and it has more to do with what each target already holds, but I could be wrong. I'd also flag the several delta jobs with different retentions all feeding Ark, I just don't know the mirror code well enough to say whether that matters. @Team-XO-Backend, posts 6 and 10 have the log and the pattern if someone gets to this one.

    For anyone else who steps through this, I've also installed the latest xen-guest-agent with the below process. Repeat for each host in the environment, 1 at a time from your Helper VM. ### ssh into your helper ### oc debug node/fedora-cmp-1/2/3 chroot /host cd /var/tmp curl -LO https://gitlab.com/xen-project/xen-guest-agent/-/jobs/6041686376/artifacts/raw/RPMS/x86_64/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm sudo rpm-ostree install /var/tmp/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm mkdir /var/tmp/xga && cd /var/tmp/xga rpm2cpio ../xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv ### From your helper... DRAIN YOUR WORKERS ### oc adm drain fedora-cmp-1/2/3 --ignore-daemonsets --delete-emptydir-data ### log back into fedora-cmp-1/2/3... ### sudo systemctl reboot ### from helper ### oc adm uncordon fedora-cmp-1/2/3 ### login to fedora-cmp-1/2/3 ### chroot /host sudo systemctl enable --now xen-guest-agent And then from XO this is what your VMs will look like.

    @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: 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: 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

    @darkbeldin Thank you. That was just off the bottom of the screen and I did scroll past it a few times, but being a little lonely icon, when all the other items have text, it didn't even register as a thing!

    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

    @station-already hehe glad you got it figured out Indeed, management interface changes are pretty "violent" in terms of how much they change and interrupt, so a reboot helps quite often - same for changing the virtual adapter/PIF assigned to a VM - alway a good idea to reboot the VM

    This is not exposed in XAPI, so it might require to write a XAPI plugin.
