    I'm very new to doing things with APIs and running into this error. What exactly does "is an excess property and therefore is not allowed" mean as a response? Below is the body I'm sending via Bruno client. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, the docs were a bit of a struggle though. Endpoint is https://xo.ducknet.org/rest/v0/pools/3c6777fc-e8d8-e065-7c30-37eb2800f472/actions/create_vm/ { "auto_poweron": true, "boot": false, "memory": 1073741824, "name_description": "test_desc", "name_label": "test_label", "template": "3ceb66f7-c137-ef4a-7a06-9af524ed5110" } Full response { "error": { "body": { "message": "\"auto_poweron,memory,name_description\" is an excess property and therefore is not allowed", "value": { "name_description": "test_desc", "memory": 1073741824, "auto_poweron": true } } } }

    Hi, thank you for the example! We will take a look. It could be a good idea to have a dedicated documentation/web page with usage examples of 'DevOps' tools

    @Danp it turns out I had a typo that took me forever to find . . . 102 vs 192 in the gateway ip. The strange thing to me was that the internal networking was working (pings, connections, etc). But there's something in the xoa web site that could not make the connection to the server it was running on, which makes me think there is some kind of external communication going on for server connections. If xoa can ping the dom0 then why would it need the gateway to connect to it for the web interface? Anyway I fixed the typo after finding the error running ip monitor, and then everything works great. This was the 3rd or 4th install of xoa so I was getting a bit hurried . . . next morning it took 2 minutes to find the error. Now its registered and working.

    @Danp I got around this by using Clonezilla to copy the disks of the 2 VMs I was having an issue with. This is very strange. The VMs booted and ran fine on the old host, I was able to clone them with Clonezilla to the new host where they also boot and run fine. There is something preventing the native tools from migrating these specific disks though.

    @DustinB As to why you're seeing "VM not found!" I don't know if that is a XO alert or something you added into the screenshot, I've never seen that so I can't speak to it. I didn't add the text, all I did was highlight it with the red surround. Just testing the backups again using the 'Delta' method and '[NOSNAP][NOBAK] Data drive' as the name of the second drive , feeling more hopeful about this one though. I'm starting to like XO the more I use it, would be good to move to this instead of switching between 2 different XCP-ng Center EXEs. depending on the XCP-ng version on the host so I really hope I can get this to work. The scheduled hourly snapshot while the guest is running looks a great feature, although I need to learn to walk with this first before I go that far

    Thank you very much for the clear explanation @HamiltonWDS ! This will be really helpful so we find a solution for that. We might default to IPv4 for a lot higher latency, and in the future maybe having closer location mirrors. Let me discuss this internally and schedule an action for that.
