    @Razor_648 While I was writing my previous message, I have been reminded that there are also issues with LVHDoISCSI SR and CBT, you should disable CBT on your backup job and on all VDI on the SR. It might help with the issue.

    I have a couple Delta backups that target the same remote. Yesterday I set up a Mirror backup between that remote and another remote. When I ran the Mirror backup yesterday, it was successful. Today 7 of the VMs succeed in the backup but 5 of them fail with: Missing vdi <guid> which is a base for a delta Could this be caused by the fact that the target for the Mirror backup used to be a target for the Delta backup so it has files on it already. Do I need to purge the folder entirely? I thought maybe that would give it a head start and the reason I'm using the Mirror backup is because the Delta backup used to fail randomly on random VMs when backing up to both remotes. How would I go about diagnosing this? I assume since the guid for the vdi is missing, it's going to be hard for me to find since I can't find something that's missing. Alternatively, maybe it's because it's currently a weird mix of old Delta backups and new Mirror backups and maybe over the next few days it will purge enough old stuff that it will start working cleanly. Should I delete the entire remote target of the Mirror to get it started cleanly? Or, more likely, delete all backups on that Mirror for the 5 VMs that failed with this error.

    @kevdog said in HTTP to HTTPS redirection: @nikade Hey thanks for for the link. I ended up just using a LetsEncrypt cert rather than self signed. I think had to add a DNS host override on my router to associate the Local LAN address of the xo server with the domain name of the server contained in the certificate -- Like 10.0.1.50 ---> xo.example.com. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction on this one. Yeah that is a good solution as well, I hope this helps others in the future who wants to secure their XO with https

    @eangulus You can always create a CLUSTER with shares storage. Problem solved. It is even possible to create cluster using two nodes - using HA-Lizard.

    XOA Delta Backup rename files?

    @olivierlambert One question to the additional added resource. I have added my cloudbackup server via VPN and NFS share to XOA. This works well, but I see that the local backup on the NAS is throttled down to the speed of the VPN upload tunneln. Is this behaviour correct? You know from the other Post, that I have struggels with the "cloudbackup" server. So if the transfer to the VPN-NFS share is interrupted also the transfer to the local NAS fails. Is it possible to add two daily (or every second day alternating) delta backup-jobs for a single vm? One saves the backup to local NAS and the other one to the vpn nfs share? Will the chains be consistent? Thank you for your advice, dmartini1337

    +1 for avoiding 3rd party install scripts, the official install doc is like, 10 commands? I think it takes maybe 10 minutes or less the last time I did it on a fresh debian system, and you know it's always the correct instructions (which is NOT the case with 3rd party scripts, as you'll see in this forum when even the slightest architectural change is made to the XO sources). You also get to learn at least a little bit about the architecture of what you're installing and running instead of pressing go on a script you grabbed from some guy's github and hoping the XO web interface appears. I thought the whole point of "homelab" (for which sources are intended and primarily used) was learning and developing skills in the first place? No disrespect intended to the people that create and maintain said scripts, it just seems to me like it bypasses the point of sources a little bit

    Indeed, this was an issue only hitting master (and XOA latest branch). This is now solved (see https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/4565 ). Note those are kind of features are usually utilized in corporate environment. What's your use case out of curiosity? shayanoh created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra closed A normal user cannot select templates when creating new VMs on resource sets #4565

    I think we could have: real duration for past jobs just a "dot" or vertical bar for the start of next jobs (so you'll know when they'll start, but we can't predict the duration) ideally, in live, the current updated Gantt of live backup tasks

    Try creating a directory within that share as root and then chown -R nobody:nogroup folder/ After doing so you should be able to mount /path/to/your/share/folder

    Yes, in this case it will be "live storage motion" (ie migrating with the storage, because you don't have a shared storage). Note that you should add the server to the pool first, and then only add VMs on local storage. Because when you add a new host to a pool, all the existing storage/VMs will be removed (VMs on the new hosts)

    Thanks. I guessed that I needed to put the full path on FreeNAS as there is not masking when expose as NSF by FreeNAS. So I put the full path as "/mnt/MybooksVolume/VM_ISOs" and that seems to have fixed the problem.
