    @rtjdamen hey there, did you ever modify in the POOL advanced tab at the bottom the BACKUP network & MIGRATION network ? fiddle with these, note what they are actually set, and change them if possible between each change, check your SR stats @florent could explain better how SR stats use the backup network to get the RRDs... I guess you have stalled RRD tasks too ? in tasks list ?

    @fcgo if the storage is shared : the export is done by one of the host of the pool If the storage is not the export is done by the host with the storage . Same for the host receiving the data The command channel, as you said, is always the master to the xoa (and eventually xo-proxy) So for a replication : [source SR] => source host =https export call=> xoa / xo-proxy =https import call=> target host => [target SR] if the xoa is running on the host doing an export, it does not use the physical network the network use between the host and SR is dependent on the storage used
  • Everything related to Xen Orchestra's REST API

    @florent, I had to do the same for Xen Orchestra Community Edition. In my case, config.toml already contained the [authentication] section, so adding a separate config.tokenValidity.toml file did not work. Instead, I had to modify the existing config.toml located at /opt/xo/xo-server. In my opinion, it is best to keep defaultTokenValidity set to 30 days as a fallback in case no value is specified. You can then simply increase maxTokenValidity to the duration you prefer. [authentication] defaultTokenValidity = '30 days' # default value of 0.5 years # comment out and increase to 5 years #maxTokenValidity = ' 0.5 year' maxTokenValidity = '5 year'

    @s-pam said in Multiple remotes in a backup - how is retention calculated: OK Great. So if I set retention to 10, it would keep 10 copies on each remote? Yes. it will keep 10 copies on each remote.

    In theory, Xen Orchestra got a protection against this issue (see https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/backup_troubleshooting.html#vdi-chain-protection ) So you have to find what's causing a long chain outside XO. You can check in XO, in the Advanced tab of the SR view, if there's VDI to coalesce. Or maybe very long chain for other reasons, there's a tool we made called xapi-explore-sr.

    Use CR instead of DR then, it will send only the diff to the other host, so it will be faster.

    I can migrate this VM from another host (7.6) to the 8.2 host just fine: [image: 1612363337871-29412a19-7047-4feb-a82e-1b3d3ce61a94-image.png] Im not sure what the agent actually is, thats why im guessing this might be related [image: 1612363441628-eb67e1dd-0979-4b17-94a8-b3d4f72397a5-image.png] VM that fails: [image: 1612363482511-153e71d2-3779-4894-b990-3b4f6b02e032-image.png]

    @nodesocket Depends on your setup. For mine, I use sudo systemctl restart xo-server.service. You could also just restart the VM.

    @s-pam said in ova problems: @crazytoo Best way to be sure it to boot the VM using a live-cd, for example systemrescue-cd or ubuntu live-dvd. Then you can use tools like gparted to inspect your disk image from inside the booted vm. That's exactly what I advised to do earlier, but it seems it was missed the first time I think that's the best approach to understand what's going on in the VM disk.

    @jedimarcus No. But I think the problem could be an issue where I merged two remote backup trees.

    Complete solution is delete delete all jobs with type "call" then delete this job ids from job_ids table. After this delete all schedule's with this job ids. And then delete this schedule ids from schedule_ids table.

    Hi, I think the issue was already reported on EVE-ng forums. It's a problem with their image and Xen, if I remember correctly.

    Hi, We never had the time to formalize that. But we do something "close": feature requests via paid support ticket are given a top priority. For the community feedback, it's pretty easy to see what's the most required via github repo or here.

    Hi, Please open a support ticket so we can take a look remotely. In theory, just removing the SR should be enough.

    @danp said in XOA backups missing after changing IP on the remote: Hi @s-pam, I assume you tried disabling and then reenabling the remote, correct? Dan Yes indeed. Thanks for the suggestion. I did file a support ticket so hopefully I can get some support to solve this.

    @badraz Thank you for your time, I think I finally fixed it. This is how: First time I've installed XO from this guide: https://github.com/ronivay/XenOrchestraInstallerUpdater I used Appliance version - prebuilt VM with XO installed. And there was a problem with negative values. Now I've tried this guide: https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater And instead of using prebuilt VM version, I ran Installation script on previously created Debian 10 VM. After script finish installing XO and all necessary libraries/dependencies, I've all telemetry working properly.

    @julien-f said in Task list enhancement: We don't to do special cases for some operations in XO 5, we'll revisit this in XO 6 which will bring the notion of XO tasks in addition to XAPI tasks. But we'll probably display the elapsed and estimated duration of the task though Regarding previous tasks, why do you need to hide some of them? How do you use these previous tasks? Hello Julien, Well, it's not really that I use them. It's just that being so filled with information not useful most of the times, it's quite unusable (with all due respect for your great job). Example of what for? To see how much it lasted an already finished VM moving/copy operation. Displaying elapsed (and estimated, and I know this won't be always 100% accurante, but will be under normal circumstandes tho) would be great. After all, knowing the size of the object that it's being copied/moved, you can always extrapolate how much is remaining knowing how much it's lasting at any given moment. Thanks!
