    @jkatz So everyone is cleared since I just experience the same issue not allowing me to create a new vm using the template. Before you use the Windows 11 Template and you have it with SYSPREP ready. You need to go down to advanced and make sure you delete the VTPM [image: 1769552292859-5d61aad5-013e-4cff-af7c-adbb4c4ca809-image.png] then create the Template. Once you create the vm again you will not receive the error and a vtpm will be created for the new VM with no issue. Hope this helps.

    @DaleDibbadel Are you running XOA or XO from the sources? Are you up-to-date?

    I updated an environment over to 6.0.3 over the weekend, it worked fine for my first 2 nightly backups, but the one from last night failed for most of my VMs. Specifically, the backup to Backblaze B2 failed, our SMB backups worked just fine. The error I am seeing on the backup is "the write IncrementalRemoteWriter has failed the step writer.beforeBackup() with error . It won't be used anymore in this job execution." I then also noticed that, for one of the failed VMs, there is a pool task stuck for "Exporting content of VDI (VDI name) through NBD" and it's stuck at 43% and hasn't moved at all for a while. The XOA VM is also not using a lot of bandwidth or anything so I don't think it's actually backing up this VDI anymore but it's also not cancelled.

    @florent, I had to do the same for Xen Orchestra Community Edition. In my case, config.toml already contained the [authentication] section, so adding a separate config.tokenValidity.toml file did not work. Instead, I had to modify the existing config.toml located at /opt/xo/xo-server. In my opinion, it is best to keep defaultTokenValidity set to 30 days as a fallback in case no value is specified. You can then simply increase maxTokenValidity to the duration you prefer. [authentication] defaultTokenValidity = '30 days' # default value of 0.5 years # comment out and increase to 5 years #maxTokenValidity = ' 0.5 year' maxTokenValidity = '5 year'

    @mpiton thanks for sharing docs, the crucial part was openssl rand -hex 32 my password was too simple and that's why i got :"Query authentication does not match server setting" error after setting 32 characters password i got my metrics, in both http://localhost:9004/metrics and http://<xo-ip>/openmetrics/metrics

    I had similar problems in 8. Even though I had static leases set in DHCP, oftentimes services come up before the IP address has been obtained. The physical console and SSH worked, but not XOA nor XCP center. Set a static IP address and reboot. If that does not work, repeat the installation and set a static IP at install. Make sure your IP address has not changed and look at the lease time. Is it only leased out for a few minutes? Here is where we discussed it for version 8: Broken Host Consoles in fresh xcp-ng 8 installation. VM consoles work.

    Hi, No. Using UUIDs is vital to have consistent files (if you change the VDI or VM name etc.) Any XO, even a fresh one, is able to connect to your remote and restore your backup. So there's no need to access files directly.

    How to save Statistic from XOA when rebooting the XCP-NG Nodes?

    It should be the same result on XCP-ng Center: it uses RRDs files stored on the host. Why do you continue to talk about the after the reboot? You mean after the upgrade, right? RRDs are preserved after a reboot If you do a yum update, those stats should be in theory preserved. If it's not the case, try to diagnose why, by comparing behavior between XCP-ng Center and XO. If it's not the same, then it's a client issue. If it's the same, then it means a version upgrade (yum or ISO) won't preserve RRDs. If you really want long terms stats for "real production" usage on long term, I strongly suggest that you think to store them in a real time series database, like Prometheus or so.

    @dbeato Update on this. Basically I needed to run the Updates on the XCP-ng hosts even though they were on 8.1 and upgraded 5 packages. Once I did that since I had an Updated XOA system, then I reboot the servers and XOA and now backups are running!

    Nothing. You should have the stats visible in live (post-upgrade). That's it. If you don't, it might be because your nodes are behind a NAT.

    You can, but as I said, in this case, you'll need to move the storage with it. Unlike with a shared storage, where only the RAM is migrated between 2 hosts. So RAM only migration is really faster than storage motion, especially true if the VM is using a large disk.

    It's not Netdata "cloud" but yes you'll have all the hosts automatically appear in XOA local Netdata install (as soon there's data present)

    That's why checking XAPI logs might be interesting to know what's used to find it's a duplicate.

    That's an interesting use case, I don't know how we could set a high prio for that, obviously a pro support ticket might raise this. Feel free anyway to create an issue on XO Github bug tracker

    This message is pretty clear: your old backup job was linked to a remote that you removed. So if you start it after removing this remote, then it can't find this remote and fails.

    Indeed, it was asked recently, and following the conversation, I created an issue to unlock this: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/4890 I think it was "locked" by mistake, so expect that fixed in next release hvilches created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed [Licensing] XOA Free unable to Copy VM or Create from Snapshot #4890
