    @Whitebeard this is a third party script build, so we have minimal control on it. In general ERROR 137 are "out of memory" error, the build is quite resource hungry . can you try with more resource ?

    @bleader Hopefully the palm print on my forehead isn't visible from where you are sitting. Of course the interface needs an IP address. In my defense, normally for something like this, I wouldn't put it on the bonded interface with all the trunked VLAN's for guest traffic (we don't give that one an IP) and it would go on the other bonded interface that isn't trunked and does get an IP, but these are test hosts and I didn't set up the other bond, so it is pulling double duty. I was able to set the IP's and get SDN working. Thanks!

    @ThasianXi Nice, thanks For now no other question related to the CCM. But I would be very interesting if you have some feedback about the CSI Driver. We'll work on this in the coming weeks. https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-csi-driver

    @olivierlambert said in un-zstd .xva files exported with XOA?: Hi! Again, before starting to talk about technical solution, can you explain the use case? If you have zstd installed on your machine, yes. It's a tar with compression (gzip or zstd). But then it won't be trivial to assemble VM data (but you can exctract metadata easily!) I didn't really mean disassemble the .xva, but rather create an uncompressed .xva that has broader support/portability. The zstd command line tool seems to be able to uncompress it just fine. Thanks.

    Hey there! It's a good thing to start by reading our doc. If you enter "Password" in the search field, you would have find: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/troubleshooting.html#recover-web-login-password As you are using Xen Orchestra into production, may I suggest to go for XOA with pro support at some point?

    @olivierlambert Maybe. Ive created a support ticket for now. Hopefully you can see if the problem is a configuration mistake on our end or a problem in XO. Thanks.

    You can't, indeed, live migrate a VM from Intel to AMD (or vice-versa), for obvious reason (the VM will try to call Intel specific instructions after migrating on an AMD CPU, the result would be… a crash!) We had a similar migration ourselves (in our own prod), from Intel to AMD. And we decided to use Continuous Replication to make a first "backup" on destination (the full) while the original VMs were running (no service interruption). Then, we shut down the VMs, make another round of replication (delta, very fast) and then we booted on destination.

    @olivierlambert That socket issue was not what was causing the problem, I went through setting by setting and if I choose 2GB of memory for a VM I get constant reboots when using XOA. I was able to repeat the issue with a number of OSs not just RHEL 8 (and variants). I havent went through and compared the differences between XOA and XenCenter yet.

    @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.

    @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.

    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.
