    @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.

    Add Host to pool, is this non-destructive to local VM's?

    Yes. That would be a way of doing so. If you can afford the downtime, you could also use a backup solution (XOA, Alike DR, etc.) to backup the VMs from both hosts, build the pool from scratch using both hosts in a clean state, and then restore back into the new pool (this way gives you a chance to not only start fresh; but, implement any big "lessons learned" or "new ideas" you've got on your list).

    Ping @pdonias IIRC, it's not trivial but this is obviously something we'll working on for XO 6 (there's also limitation in XAPI, because it doesn't tell you what's going on for real behind a task)

    Hello, The DNS names of the master (and nodes also with a pattern) should be configurable for the user indeed. We'll add it in a next version of the recipe. Thanks for the feedback!

    @bberndt said in Create job to migrate several VMs: Tring to create a job, to schedule the migration of several VMs to another host. At the bottom, there are a couple things I don't know. There are two check boxes here for each of these: mapVdisSrs mapVifsNetworks They don't seem to do anything. What are these? Also, what goes in the box Migration Network. The name storage1, or network1 don't work. thanks. Ah! the UUID of the storage Migration network on the destination is what I need, apparently.

    Check host logs to understand why. Maybe those VHD were attached to the control domain or something like that.

    @akurzawa xo-server is not explicitly multi-processed, but it uses async IO calls in Node which should lead to multi-threaded operations. Anyway, we are currently working on reimplementing backups for the proxy and it will eventually lead to using multiple processes. These changes will at the end be merged back to xo-server as well.

    If you create two separated jobs. One for the CR and one for the Rolling snapshot they will not interfere.

    OK the tasks (it been 8 hours since I've checked) are gone, but the VHDs localted on backup server's localstorage remains. QUESTION: How to delete VHDs that are not realted to any vm? I think it will not be deleted automatically. EG. For example - I've deleted "Atlas" VM, but big atlas VHD remains on BackupHost's local storage: [image: 1581667660068-666ed028-c8e0-4ae7-86f3-1a307f7eee76-image.png]

    Hi, It's possible to do it using the UI, simply create a schedule with 7 as Backup retention and 2 as Replication retention. [image: 1581581696403-fd938a54-8730-4bcf-85c3-7caf2018ac52-image.png]
