    @poddingue there is a notion of appliance too (group of VMs) https://docs.xcp-ng.org/appendix/cli_reference/#appliance-commands where you can start/stop a group of VMs, never tried it, doesn't seem to have a boot order in the vAPP neither

    @gcpeters4 said: @john.c This is a good idea as well. If the previous suggestion of trying to do a DNS round robin approach doesn't work, this may be my best option. Thanks for taking the time to provide your suggestion! By the way my suggestion is recommended best practice from Microsoft for their Active Directory software and/or technology. My suggestion will be more likely to work if your DNS servers and requests have issues with Round Robin configuration. Plus with my solution you can easily add more servers as domain controllers to the cluster, as required and use replication to keep them consistent and up to date.

    hello there, still XOA 6.3.3 here. since the last big XObackup & CR reworking, we have an annoying bug [image: 1778328477250-6db625da-2a61-4860-bc50-5c6adae0ae33-image.jpeg] This VM is 2.17Tb [image: 1778328523117-bc28b5ef-f37d-4bf9-b016-921309c17353-image.jpeg] how can be the KEY is 9.1Gb ? In fact the KEY size is good, but when retention of 10 points is obtained, the merging of last incremental in the first KEY point of the chain erase the size. So in our restore view, data sizes are all wrong, based on the sum of this key + 9 inc [image: 1778328703332-2e0a1587-365a-404f-9186-2b909605b3fa-image.jpeg] @florent could you do something about that ?

    Hi, If you want to change the background color, you need to update the $side-menu-bg: #044b7f; in ~/xen-orchestra/packages/xo-web/src/index.scss . Best regards.

    That's precisely the difference: a delta backup is stored in a remote, a CR is stored in an SR.

    Not a huge deal currently, but if I had a number of VDI's spread out, it could exeed any single available space which means I cant restore at all... Can this be done in an alternative way via CLI?

    What does your cloud config logs show on the guest OS after boot? Can you see if it has made any attempt to inject the config? Only thing I can think of is that your cloud config might be wrong thus the cloud init service is refusing it. Have you tried to use an ubuntu image? I used official images of both debian 10 and ubuntu 18.04 and worked fine once I got rid of the pre-populated network config or inserted a real network config. I spent too long trying to figure out what was going on so let me know if there's anything else you need to know, it's super frustrating.

    Question: Delta backup retention vs. full backup interval

    @Vinylrider your understanding is correct, delta retention is just how many deltas to keep before merging the oldest delta with the full. Full backup interval is the time between each new full back up for use in case of corrupted back up. To answer your question, yes it is recommended to have more than 1 full back up to fall back to in the event of corruption espcially of delta backups since delta backups rely on previous deltas meaning if one of your delta is corrupted, you'll loose all data from that point onward until another full backup is made, or worse your full backup could be corrupted (more likely because of the file size) then you loose the whole chain. And if your corrupted delta is merged with the full, you'll probably have a corrupted chain aswell.

    @aghering the [NOBAK] option only excludes the transfer process, it will still try to make a snapshot of the disks. There are many possible causes for your UNIMPLEMENTED IN SM BACKEND issue, the most likely causes are probably storage related. If it is not a critical VM, you can try to disconnect the second storage disk and try again. If that doesn't work you might have to forget the SR and try (you can reattach it again, just need to remember your sr-uuid. Also, your /var/log/SMlog might reveal something.

    Makes sense now that you mention it... Perhaps I should have realized that because obviously the backups only run on my primary XO instance. Thanks!
