    @Pilow I will take a look in deep later, but the key/delta and disk usage is set during backup, even if they are merged during LTR retention

    @olivierlambert Thanks for the tip — it’s a very interesting mechanism. I’m going to read the docs now

    In case anyone wonders how this played out. At the end of the day, I shutdown the host with the running workloads on it, kept it at BIOS boot so the 8.3 installer would upgrade it cleanly, and then booted it back up. For reasons related to my particular setup, the down time was more than 60 minutes. But that's not related to XCP-ng. The XCP-ng installer was maybe 10 of that. 20 of that was 3 reboots on a server that takes ages to boot. One thing that is a bit difficult is that the 8.3 installer doesn't notice ZFS volumes or help with ZFS. So after the upgrade, I have to follow a modified set of these instructions (modified because the package names have changed over time) to install ZFS and its components into the system. So the sequence is: Shutdown Install via ISO Reboot to single user mode Run yum update to pull in all the updates Run the ZFS commands to install ZFS on the host Reboot again Run normally Of course, I ended up rebooting more than just those 2 times, because I forgot that I would need to install ZFS (even though I did it on 2 different hosts already ) So now the pool is fully upgraded, everybody is happy. I'm now working on creating shared storage across the nodes. It's amateur hour over here. I appreciate all the help.

    @ph7 said in ️ XO 6: dedicated thread for all your feedback!: I'm not sure if it's a good idea to show a Backup issue every time a Cont.rep. job is run Thanks for the feedback, we'll fix that! @XCP-ng-JustGreat said in ️ XO 6: dedicated thread for all your feedback!: However, the periodic console refresh interrupts the performing of actual work We'll investigate that issue, thanks for the report. @ph7 said in ️ XO 6: dedicated thread for all your feedback!: In ContRep, Conf/meta and in one of the Full Backup jobs I get Report when Never. But they are enabled in XO5 with mail address and Report when Skipped and failure This definitely looks like a bug, we'll check that, thanks again! @cmoriarty said in ️ XO 6: dedicated thread for all your feedback!: It seems now these VM Notes are stuffed into a small "Description" field inside the "Quick Info" panel for a VM. Notes and descriptions are 2 separate things. We haven't added notes in XO 6 yet, but don't worry, we will! And XO 5 and XO 6 will be available side by side until XO 6 is fully usable, so you're not going to lose your notes, no need to back them up

    log_fs_usage / /var/log directory on pool master filling up constantly

    Another thing that I noticed: despite enabling remote syslog (to graylog) for all XCP-ng hosts in the pool /var/log gets filled up to 100%. Adding remote syslog seem to not change usage of /var/log at all. Official XCP-ng documentation states otherwise here: https://docs.xcp-ng.org/installation/install-xcp-ng/#installation-on-usb-drives The linked part of the documentation indicates that configuring remote syslog can be a possible solution for /var/log space constraints which seems to be not the case. I feel like logging could use some investigation by Vates in general.
