    @marcoi said: the ipmitool works on my asrock MB but i dont see it in XO host screen. I also didnt see it on xo6 interface. @olivierlambert Is ipmi data supposed to show in v6 on support systems or not yet. I dont see ipmi data for my dell servers at work in v6 only v5.

    That's a very good question, let me ask internally. Ping @pdonias he might know the answer

    @florent Hello, So I am not sure what changed but it looks like the continuous replication should be working as intending now. I did reconfigure the schedule a last time before I posted last and let it run. I can see where it was still doing the full backups and where I stopped it by restarting the XOA. It seems then after the reboot and saving the schedule again it appears to working. [image: 1774440255575-4d6b6de0-2b36-40db-b281-5db6f309224f-image.jpeg] It is now showing delta backups and the transfers are much smaller. [image: 1774440322912-e3ccd9ec-9b64-43cc-b82d-c996e3cca264-image.jpeg] I wish I had a better idea what would have caused it to work but I will continue to monitor it. I would say for now my issue is resolved.

    Version 1.4.0 is released: https://codeberg.org/NiXOA/system/releases/tag/v1.4.0 It includes significant changes and improvements, including: dedicated getting started section, migration to valkey, only needing to clone system, and helper scripts. the xen-orchestra-ce nixpkg now references the libvhdi nixpkg, and the core flake now references and pulls from the xen-orchestra-ce repo as an overlay. System (the user input flake) now uses the Core repo as an overlay, reducing the need to clone both locally AND allowing system to pull new updates and releases from core. XO, and libvhdi as needed. The next goal is: Make an xsconsole-like TUI Automate package updates for libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce using CI/CD pipelines Submit libvhdi and xen-orchestra-ce as official nixpkgs

    @olivierlambert Thanks, I tried running fstrim but it returned "the discard operation is not supported" on this NFS SR mount. I also tried running on SSD mounts which do support TRIM and they all returned the same message about "discard...not supported." The VM OS (CentOS 7.8) does support TRIM in kernel so not sure if xcp-ng or xenserver is the reason why the VM can't issue fstrim on the NFS SR mount or the SSD SR mounts.

    When you migrate a VDI to another SR, its UUID is changed. So it's like a "new VDI". However, there's an issue opened a while ago: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/2896 We did not have a priority on this because not a lot of people asked for it. I think it could be a good optional feature in a job. snimmerjahn created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed [Delta Backup] Avoid full export after VDI migrate #2896

    Problem with ZSTD compressed backup

    So far, I noticed this problem for three VMs. Each time I am trying to perform a backup with zstd compression through XO, the backup is marked as successful, but output XVA file is damaged (incomplete). The backup works fine for all other VMs, and I cannot pinpoint what is special about these faulty VMs.

    Hi, It failed because you changed the npm version manually. You can indeed re-deploy a fresh XOA, export the configuration and import it on the new one.

    I'm not against exposing this in the UI, it might be not that difficult. However, more traction will obviously make it possible

    In fact, there's 2 different things: Downloading and unpacking the updates (yum process). This won't change anything right now, because your current updated programs are likely running in memory (Xen, Linux, XAPI…) so only a reboot will make things changed: it's the current update button on the pool view. Evacuating the host, rebooting it to get all the new versions, and migrate back VMs to it (starting by the master) Right now, 1. need to be triggered manually (you must do it otherwise it won't happen: bad if you forgot) but everything else is managed at all hosts of the pool at the same time (good). And 2 is entirely manual. So that's why I wrote this, to get 1. and 2. entirely automated while being safe and giving you reports: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/5286 I have hopes we can deliver a first version (at least from the CLI) for this month release olivierlambert created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra open Scheduled Rolling pool updates (with reports) for XCP-ng #5286

    There was a recent commit on Github dealing with NFS mounts. Suggest that you rebuild with the latest source and then try setting up the NFS storage again.

    @fluffy-bunny Use this to get your VBDs from each VM xe vm-param-get param-name=VBDs uuid=<vm-uuid> Then to get the name of each VDI file use this xe vbd-param-get param-name=vdi-uuid uuid=<vbd-uuid> But as olivier said, it is much easier to just use XO's disk view of the VM you want, then use the "copy" button to copy its VDI name.

    If migration failed, there's a reason. It's usually stable. Obviously, because your hosts weren't in the pool, a different CPU model can be the problem (they are automatically adapted if they are in the same pool).
