    Thanks for the information. @Chico008, does the information at https://xcp-ng.org/blog/2025/10/30/xcp-ng-8-3-varstored-update-unbootable-vm-risk-and-remediation/ resolve the issue for you?

    Hey, I am experiencing the same issue using XO from sources (commit 4d77b79ce920925691d84b55169ea3b70f7a52f6), Node version 22, Debian 13. I have multiple backup jobs and only one wich is a full backup job is giving me issues. Most VMs can be backed up by this full backup job just fine but some error out with "body timeout error", e.g.: { "id": "1762017810483", "message": "transfer", "start": 1762017810483, "status": "failure", "end": 1762018134258, "result": { "name": "BodyTimeoutError", "code": "UND_ERR_BODY_TIMEOUT", "message": "Body Timeout Error", "stack": "BodyTimeoutError: Body Timeout Error\n at FastTimer.onParserTimeout [as _onTimeout] (/etc/xen-orchestra/node_modules/undici/lib/dispatcher/client-h1.js:646:28)\n at Timeout.onTick [as _onTimeout] (/etc/xen-orchestra/node_modules/undici/lib/util/timers.js:162:13)\n at listOnTimeout (node:internal/timers:588:17)\n at process.processTimers (node:internal/timers:523:7)" } } XO from sources VM has 8 vCPU and 8GB RAM. Link speed of the XCP-ng hosts is 50 Gbit/s. XO VM can reach 20 Gbit/s to the NAS in iperf. Zstd is enabled for this backup job. It appears that only big VMs (as in disk size) have this issue. The VMs that have this issue on the full backup job can be backed up just fine via delta backup job. I read in another thread that this issue can be caused by dom0 hardware constrains but dom0 has 16 vCPU and is at ~40% CPU usage while backups are running. RAM usage sits at 2GB out of 8GB used. I changed my full backup job to GZIP compression and will see if this helps. Will report back. I really need compression due to the large virtual disks of some VMs... Best regards MajorP

    @axel I just ran the installation script on a Debian 10 VM and it worked as expected. Even when using the "official" way, sometimes the installation can fail due to things like -- issues with recent commit to github repo issues with upstream dependency etc This is why the pre-built XOA appliance exists. Feel free to open an issue over on the script's Github repo if you continue to encounter issues.

    This is a 3rd party container not validated nor endorsed by XO devs. We don't know what's inside, if you have questions on it, ask on the Github repo of the maintainer Backup reports will answer your initial question/requirement (reports can be sent by email, Slack etc.) There's also a Nagios plugin, or you can use XO API to make request to be support in any software of your infrastructure Monitoring a Docker container is outside scope of XO, I would suggest to ask Docker community. Regarding XO and how backup are done, any fresh XOA deployed (or from the sources) will be able to find all the previous backup done by an old XOA, because we store every info on the remote.

    The best option is to use Disaster Recovery, or both DR with your current backup. It's the easiest way. Please watch the video I posted.

    Yeah it's like there's no network. Also double check with XOA (that you can deploy here: http://xen-orchestra.com/#!/xoa )

    I think this is what happens when you ask XOA to move a disk into a different resource pool, and that pool can't see the storage. Discovered that by accident

    Olivier - the destination storage was attached to the wrong pool. It was behaving correctly, but not doing what I wanted.

    I'm fed up with trolling. I already explained that XOA can be seen as a "Xen Orchestra dedicated distro", we make the choice to build it from a "snapshot" (commit) on various component. It's not based on a GitHub branch. That's our choice that you can do on your side if you want to build a XOA equivalent. You have all the 3 liberties of GPL software because everything is available on GitHub. XOA is a choice of which version to use together for each component, with QA and mastered env to be able to make efficient support. If you can't understand that despite 3 or 4 persons explained that to you, we can't do anything else. Good bye.

    Yes, for now and until the proxies are available, everything is going through the XOA. In your example, it goes from Site 2 (VM1) to Site 1 (XOA) and then to site 3 (VM1 replicated) If you are interested into proxies, feel free to subscribe on the form at the end of the article, we are planning to have an alpha version as soon as possible

    @DukeVenator I suppose you've done that, but just in case I'lll ask: have you issued systemctl restart xo-server.service ? Firewall rules may need modyfying. What is the output of ufw status verbose ?

    @Danp No, I haven't as I never use non-LTS servers from Ubuntu, and most software and guides asks for LTS. I might test it later with 19.04 but my posting here was more for the sake of others as I imagine that I'm not the only one that has experienced this on Ubuntu so when I figured out that it works in Debian I figured others could get some help too. It might also point the developers in the right direction if they wish to look into this, I don't know how many users there are that have got this problem but at least there are some of us so it might be something to look at if not at least there is a posted alternative. Most would not change OS if all guides tell them that Ubuntu works so this was more meant as a PSA if nothing else.
