    @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 ?

    @olivierlambert Thanks for the response. It does make sense since I made some changes to the network a few days back.

    @akurzawa said in Wrong timestamp on snaphot: Hi It'a an important to know exact time of vm and snapshot - eg when recovering for an example a Active Directory or sql database. When doing so, someone can believe that restores the data from {the time visible in name}, because can be unaware of possible offset of zulu time. You already have the exact time If you aren't aware of an ISO standard format date, it's another story. But this is really standard and universal way. I suppose you meant "misinterpreting the snapshot time" which has NOT the same meaning than "incorrect time".

    @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.
