This will come for some vendors (with their own APIs). We do not want to use SSH for that though (XO never use SSH).

You can get that with the JSON RPC API, see https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/architecture#xo-cli-cli for more details.

RE: How to synchronize Metadata backup with SAN/NAS snaphots/backup?posted in Backup
@nodje said in How to synchronize Metadata backup with SAN/NAS snaphots/backup?:
Aren't typically the snapshots done on the SAN side in these cases but need to be driven by XOA ?
No. By default, everything is done by XCP-ng. The good side is that regardless the storage vendor, it will work. That's a strength, to be agnostic on the hardware. The price to pay is to rely less on the vendor capabilities. We have plans this year to start with some storage vendors to offload snaps and other things, but as you can imagine, since there are hundreds of different vendors with hundreds of different models, you cannot have something universal.
