    I noticed that for "Mirror full backup", the process copies every backup, and then immediately removes backups older than retention. This seems unnecesary for full backups as there is no relationship between each backup for a VM. [image: 1764448450610-227425cd-efdc-40cf-9222-4df5bf77df06-image.png]

    @SethNY you could even enhance this VM_LIST = with TAGs on VM, so that you manage the selection directly in XOA

    @cichy said in DevOps Megathread: what you need and how we can help!: Prioritization of VM startup AND shutdown sequencing! PLEASE - in the GUI (XO). So - without code - I can finally shutdown my servers accessing DB's prior to shutting down the DB server vm's themselves thereby saving myself from table corruption. @cichy In the past it was recommended to do this with an vApp and script. However this means editing the script or configuration file (if one’s created for the script). Which doesn’t make it as easy as the method, used by VMware ESXi for configuring the order and enabling the capacity. Xen Orchestra and/or XCP-ng could really do with an UI (and API) based method of setting up and managing the VM boot and shutdown order.

    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.

    Thanks! I did look in the XOA docs at first, but didn't think that network configuration was under the "Support" headline.

    @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!

    Hi, There's no known mount issue at the moment. You can use SMB or NFS. XAPI is not able to push files, when you backup, an HTTP handle is created in the dom0, so it has to be fetched by something (XO in this case, or a proxy).

    @busthead If you are importing a VM from your browser, you should not navigate away from XO as it will interrupt the upload. You can navigate to another page of XO though.

    I concentrated here, after upgrading my second server: Error: /lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.8' not found (required by /root/xen-orchestra/node_modules/argon2/lib/binding/napi-v3/argon2.node) I've found circumstantial evidence that this depends on libraries found in newer gcc than is in the Cent OS 7 repo at this time. strings /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep CXXABI CXXABI_1.3 CXXABI_1.3.1 CXXABI_1.3.2 CXXABI_1.3.3 CXXABI_1.3.4 CXXABI_1.3.5 CXXABI_1.3.6 CXXABI_1.3.7 CXXABI_TM_1 so argon2.node requires something newer than centos7 can provide?! and upgrading gcc does the trick? I may have to try when I have more time. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63374392/node-module-argon2-usr-lib-x86-64-linux-gnu-libstdc-so-6-version-cxxabi-1 Indeed here is Centos 8. $ strings /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 | grep CXXABI CXXABI_1.3 CXXABI_1.3.1 CXXABI_1.3.2 CXXABI_1.3.3 CXXABI_1.3.4 CXXABI_1.3.5 CXXABI_1.3.6 CXXABI_1.3.7 CXXABI_1.3.8 CXXABI_1.3.9 CXXABI_1.3.10 CXXABI_1.3.11 CXXABI_TM_1 CXXABI_FLOAT128 and yes, I understand that XO doesn't target CentOS, but its our 'standard' right now.

    @bsodmike Increase memory to node.js as described in the docs under memory management. Adding mem to VM is insufficient in isolation, so my post above may have been misleading (sorry!).

    @olivierlambert I think that the default behavior should be VMs stay on the SR that they are on. If you are taking a host down and moving the VMs to another host why would you move the VM storage location, that defeats one of the reasons you use shared storage.
