    We do warn about the certificate situation in the 8.3 release notes, indeed, but it's easy to get caught by that. There's a way to temporarily disable LTS verification on the new hosts in order to join it to the existing pool. See https://docs.xcp-ng.org/releases/release-8-3/#certificate-verification-xs which in turns points to https://docs.xenserver.com/en-us/xenserver/8/hosts-pools/certificate-verification where you'll find that command. Regarding your initial situation, I'm not 100% sure, but I think Warm Migration, might be a way to migrate your VMs off your slave hosts while minimizing downtime. I don't know how it plays with CBT and heterogenous pool state exactly though.

    Feel free to create a trial on an XOA, test stable and latest and tell us. It might be also related to your environment, but if it works at some commit and not later, it's weird. @florent & @bastien-nollet maybe?

    @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.

    FYI, an extremely basic command line to encode passwords: > node -e 'process.stdin.on("data", _ => {console.log(encodeURIComponent(_.toString().trim())); process.exit()}); process.stdout.write("Password: ")' Password: foo@bar foo%40bar

    @badrAZ w00t! Thank you! I look forward to the update. BTW, I went ahead and threw my updated XO CE into "production" here at home where it runs 10 VMs. So far no other issues seen by me. XCP-NG/XO.

    Have you read https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/delta_backups.html ? Use normal backup it will work. Or stick with delta and advanced option, a full every 1 backup.

    File Restore : error scanning disk for recent delta backups but not old

    Hi, I've noticed the addition of the commit about the 99 limit warning. That's good news. I am now having trouble trying to understand the meaning of the Full Backup Interval setting. I have the following scenario: Backups for the last 30 days, daily. Backups for the last 52 weeks, weekly. I want to make sure that the delta backups are not corrupt periodically (let's say once a month). I don't understand how to set the schedules, the backup retention, the full backup interval. I also need answers to the following questions, and I haven't been able to understand this from the documention. Do I need one delta backup with 2 schedules, or 2 backups with one schedule each ? I've noticed that full backup interval is per backup, whereas retention is per schedule. How do these two settings interact with multiple schedules? On what dates will the transfers be large ? How many full backups will be stored on the remote at any given time ? When will the merges happen? Thanks

    @MichaelCropper, to answer your question, yes, I enabled networking during the installation process. This allowed me to SSH in following the subsequent reboot to run yum groupinstall "Workstation". VGA was enabled for me and then Video RAM was at 16MiB. @ben20ben brings up good advice with the XCP-ng tools, install it and life gets easier.
