    I'm importing a raw disk, traffic is going on the PC but the task doesn't appear in the task list. The traffic stops, the disk doesn't appear on the SR, there are no logs. After converting to vhd, the same problem. commit 83c3e

    Hello @ludalm13, Thanks for your contribution and sorry for not giving an answer earlier. We initially planned to review your PR while doing some additional work on the audit plugin, but our planning evolved and that work was postponed. We'll review your PR in the following days.

    Hi everyone, After migrating VMs between pools and converting their disks from VHD to QCOW2, some VMs repeatedly fail during backup export and snapshot cleanup. Other QCOW2 VMs and VHD-backed VMs back up successfully. Environment Two XCP-ng 8.3 hosts, both updated and rebooted Shared LVM-over-iSCSI storage on Synology (approximately 8.6 TiB free) NBD enabled XO Server 5.213.0, commit a50776cb7, running in the Ronivay Docker image Recurring errors QCOW2 export times out and falls back to a full: BodyTimeoutError: Body Timeout Error code: UND_ERR_BODY_TIMEOUT can't compute delta …, fall back to a full Other export attempts receive a host storage-backend error: invalid HTTP header in response body HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Error SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_1200 The response includes a failed disk-close operation: tapdisk_control_close_image: device qcow2:… still open tap-ctl close … -t 120 Connection timed out status=110 Snapshot cleanup then fails: Couldn't disconnect … from dom0 OPERATION_NOT_ALLOWED: VBD … still attached to … VDI_IN_USE(…, destroy) We confirmed that the affected attachments belong to snapshot VDIs in dom0. Repeated VBD.unplug_force operations appear, and backup retries encounter the same problem. The problem persists after updating and rebooting both hosts and updating XO. Has anyone experienced similar QCOW2 backup and snapshot cleanup failures after a cross-pool migration? Is there a known fix or recommended recovery procedure?

    Hi, This was fixed in Latest. But if you need to stay on Stable, you can open a ticket to have a patch.

    For anyone else who steps through this, I've also installed the latest xen-guest-agent with the below process. Repeat for each host in the environment, 1 at a time from your Helper VM. ### ssh into your helper ### oc debug node/fedora-cmp-1/2/3 chroot /host cd /var/tmp curl -LO https://gitlab.com/xen-project/xen-guest-agent/-/jobs/6041686376/artifacts/raw/RPMS/x86_64/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm sudo rpm-ostree install /var/tmp/xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm mkdir /var/tmp/xga && cd /var/tmp/xga rpm2cpio ../xen-guest-agent-0.4.0-0.fc37.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idmv ### From your helper... DRAIN YOUR WORKERS ### oc adm drain fedora-cmp-1/2/3 --ignore-daemonsets --delete-emptydir-data ### log back into fedora-cmp-1/2/3... ### sudo systemctl reboot ### from helper ### oc adm uncordon fedora-cmp-1/2/3 ### login to fedora-cmp-1/2/3 ### chroot /host sudo systemctl enable --now xen-guest-agent And then from XO this is what your VMs will look like.

    @olivierlambert could this error be more verbose? I think this error should say: Cannot write file .keeper_uygbivt5lv on remote <whatever the remote name/address> NFS is mounted but XOA cannot write to mounted dir. This happens in NFSv4 as default when sec=sys on NFS server (that is the default).

    @olivierlambert @olivierlambert said in OVA import failing: Keep in mind the file has to flow from your browser toward your XOA, then to your XOA to your host, which might use another network share itself. If your XOA could mount the place where you have your OVA directly, you could use upload-ova utility (see https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/tree/master/%40xen-orchestra/upload-ova#usage ) to send them directly. Going to look into that, thank you.

    @julien-f is aware of the problem, he's working on getting proxy fully independent on the network connection. Can you check why the connection between XOA and your proxy is interrupted? Is there any reason you have in mind?

    I said that for both statements: It's not Xen fault if it doesn't work on top of KVM, but Xen accessing some virt features that aren't correctly exposed by KVM. I'm not blaming them, nested virt is a mess to properly code and test. Consider this as experimental everywhere. I missed the "for me". But it's also vague, I don't know your constraints/what do you want. Also, I think I heard that some users made it work with Virtualbox, but it might also depends on your hardware. As I said, nested virt is a mess, and sometimes, some hardware works better than others (or even some VBox versions).

    We don't have any other report of this issue elsewhere. Double check you are on the completely latest XO version, and alternatively, try with XOA on latest channel.

    There's an small update you should see now in your XOA. Install it, and you'll be able to bind the license to this new XOA

    Yep, there's basically nothing. It's more SMAPI related than XAPI in the end.

    @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.
