    @irtaza9 Is this on a single host or a pool? Are all hosts properly time-synchronized? It it related to just one specific storage device or on any, e.g., is the behavior the same on a locally-created SR? Are there any hung tasks causing unnecessary I/O on that storage device?

    @dknight-bg the Feeder post you linked asks for two things: sending audit events to syslog, which is what this PR does, and recording successful logins, which as far as I can tell the PR doesn't touch. If others reading this need either one, a vote on https://feedback.vates.tech/posts/88/audit-log-forward-events-to-remote-syslog-record-successful-logins is the easiest way to show it. The PR is still waiting for a reviewer, as far as I can see.

    Hi, @Velocity1192 . On v6 first: creating and editing backup jobs still happens in XO 5 for now, XO 6 shows the jobs but doesn't create them yet (https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/backups-and-dr/backups-in-xo6). For the schedule, @abudef asked almost the same question earlier this year. @Pilow's answer there is clearer than anything I'd write: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/104108. As I read it, you either use one daily schedule plus the "Full backup interval" setting (the full lands N runs after the chain starts), or two schedules on the same job with "Force full backup" ticked on the Sunday one. That second way is how you get to pick the day, and he says not to mix the two. One thing to expect, from @Danp in another thread (https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/91943) : the oldest backup is always a full and old deltas get merged into it, so for a while you'll see two fulls on the remote rather than weeks 1 and 2 being deleted. I don't think the scheduler can say "every other Sunday". I might be wrong there; someone who runs this kind of plan may know a trick.

    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.

    Short answer: no. Long answer: I'm not sure on the "how" we could do that. You should probably ask a XAPI developer about this. I'll try to get one or two here

    Hi! I suppose you mean XOA? And yes, you can, until we have a UUID bind per XOA.

    The information is visible in the build number you have in your XO section. The build number will be visible in the latest appliance once deployed. Because it's not mandatory to use the last one, we don't track it. As I said, it's not a problem to update it until we ask people to change it

    Right now there's no way to know what's happening inside a VM disk. So we can't know when a VM disk is full or not.

    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.

    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.
