    @Danp I was going to do the upgrade over the December / January Christmas break in Australia but that is when this issue became apparent so we didn't want to be making major changes until it was resolved. I note @anthoineb noted the first report was late August / September 2025 which was just before 8.2.1 reached EOL, so it would be a shame not to have a fix for it tested on 8.2.1 as it seems an upgrade to 8.3 would be unwise while we still have this issue?

    @laszlobortel since we are generating the stream sequentially, we though that there wasn't any real world gain. Also, if my understanding is correct using one thread means we will have only one process( + xo + nbdkit-vddk) processes , and we were trying to limit the risk of zombie process locking the disks , which was far too common with the previous code we'll do a quick test to ensure it does not beak anything and propose either a better default of a configuration option note that this will be a concurrency per disk, so VM with a lot of disk will put more pressure on the source

    Hi @halvor, FYI, ACL V2 / RBAC is now available in the REST API. You can create a privilege that only give you read privilege on your host. You can see the RBAC doc. A dedicated thread is available on the forum thread, please feel free to share your feedback. Thank you.

    No it's not how it works in XAPI. You need a dedicated ISO SR using only *.iso file name/extension.

    There's no "community" version of XOA, there's only Xen Orchestra Are you sure you are on master? Have you tried with XOA?

    You can reattach the drive (in XO web UI or with xe by recreating the VBD: vbd-create vm-uuid=4aef7b34-2e7e-53c5-62e3-331be8151287 vdi-uuid=193f9105-e23c-4fe7-a8ae-40bed37ede4e device=0). Then try to boot the VM.

    @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
