    @johnnezero said: @john.c Thank you for all the great ideas, keep em' comming! Your welcome. If your other plugin was vibe coded it may be worth doing the same for the other. If you’re still working on it! @julienxovates In regards to the XO updates with the upcoming encrypted XO data store, by default (opt in for now). Is it ready for plugins like the one done by this author, and others in the future please?

    @mpiton Thanks for looking into this, I guess it wasn't apparent that I needed to click the Save Configuration button for that plugin. I did that and confirmed that the secret now survives an xo-server restart. Thanks again!

    I am seeing similar behavior, and only on my backup Remote with "Store backup as multiple data blocks" enabled. I've fallen back to a previous build from two days ago and rerunning backup now.

    @koushik you have to use the Helm controller addons for RKE2 to deploy autmatically the Helm chart for the Xen Orchestra CCM with the field spec.bootstrap set to true: Field | Default | Description -------------------------------------------------- `spec.bootstrap` | `false` | Set to True if this chart is needed to bootstrap the cluster (Cloud Controller Manager, etc) EDIT: I wrote a wiki page with what I've tested https://github.com/vatesfr/xenorchestra-cloud-controller-manager/wiki/Rancher-RKE2

    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.
