    Hi, people. I`m using xcpng and xo for more then 10 years. And after one last installation of 8.3 on new server found a strange behaviour of CPU monitoring. Monitoring shows a falling down of cpu usage down to zero for short time period every 4 minutes. But VM monitoring does not show this falling down. And i could not find any other indications of this problem. CPU = Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6338. XCP-NG [image: 1756637218561-2c6aa9a0-e1bc-44b6-bffe-7d114b9150e2-image.png] One of VMs in this box.

    @bryonadams said in Trouble Creating VM via API: Is there a place I can submit a feature request to allow setting a description and other settings from the UI to get feature parity when creating a VM? Otherwise, there's not much point since I have to go in and touch the new VM anyway. Unless I'm going about this wrong to begin with? You can create a feature request on Xen Orchestra github repository (https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues), and if you have subscribed to support via XOA you can send a request through Zammad.

    @Cyrille Thanks for the release ! I just tested the happy path of settings (6GB min / 8GB max and 8/8) and it seems to work as expected. Now, I can get rid of the workaround, that's awesome

    Continuous Replication -> SR Disk space

    Hi, There is different things one must consider during CR: SR type: block based or file based? First one will be thick provisioned, so plan a lot of space (eg: local LVM, LVM over iSCSI etc.). Local ext/XFS, NFS or XOSAN aren't affected by this problem Snapshot left: to do a delta, we must have a way to compare to something. The snapshot which left on the SR is the one that will be used for the next backup. It will be compared to the current disk state and only the delta will be sent. So that's perfectly normal "Job canceled to protect the VDI chain": this is a protection to avoid doing another backup while the previous removed snapshot isn't coalesced. You have a link in the message, please refer to the documentation for details

    @mts said in Continuous Replication -> Exchange Log: If you use the native windows-backup or a third-party application it will delete the transaction-log after backup. How can I achieve the same with xen-orchestra? I'm running low on disk-space right now... I think that you confusing physical (layer) backup with logical backup. XOA can backup/replicate/snapshot phisical medium which is a hard disk presented to your VM. It has nothing to do with the data in the VM (logical layer).

    Hmm I think it might be possible using xe CLI and creating the drives manually (creating VBDs I suppose). I never spotted such a use case before, but again, might be doable It is using VNC (via noVNC in XO). You can copy a template, but a template is just a set of "configuration" for your VM (eg PV or HVM mode, some virtual BIOS settings).

    Hi, If you are using XOA, please create a support ticket. This way our teams could take a look remotely to find the best solution.

    Thanks for the tip. I was using node v8.11.4 and had issues compiling during the upgrade then upgraded to the latest stable node version which wasn't v8.x. I upgraded to v8.16.2 now and it runs fine. Thanks.

    Indeed, 6.2 uses a very old configuration for keyboard mapping and therefore doesn't work correctly with XO.

    I switched due to SSD replacement and XCP-ng new installation. I didn't think about that switching from ext3 to lvm does also have an effect from thin to thick provisioning Anyway I found the explaination, here -> "a snapshot on a LVM based SR will double the whole VM disk size!" But I will think about to switch to ext4 -> topic solved, thank you!!

    Change the remote in your job config. If you want to keep the previous backup there, just move or copy everything to the new remote.
