      @acebmxer as per your screenshots, we can guess you have daily backup jobs operated by the XOA
      and the memory graph is significant of a reguler OOM kill (out of memory)

      there is some kind of memory leak happening and the devs are investigating it in another thread in here

      upgrading to 8GB or 16GB your XOA memory will take it more days before OOM happens, but it will happen

      check this thread https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/11721/backup-mail-report-says-interrupted-but-it-s-not/48

        Yeah I was following your post. At first I thought i was having random backup issues with backups via proxies with the occasional issue with backups via xoa. Then just yesturday see the error about memory.

        For now I just rebooted XOA and it down under 2gb currently. Will wait and see how long for it to build back up again or untill Dev team finds a solution to the problem.

          Looks like the issue still persists in 6.3.1?

          Here is since installing the latest update yesterday:

            @flakpyro yup still aggressive on memory consumption
            I have a task that reboots XOA & XOPROXIES every two days to mitigate

            8e3474d6-3c71-4b21-bf1c-293fe13c61b8-image.jpeg

            since 6.3 / 6.3.1 it seems more aggressive on the ramp up (I updated just yesterday... was still on 6.1.2)

                Hi, we've detected a memory leak at the REST API level.
                We pushed a fix on the branch: mra-fix-rest-memory-leak
                Can you test the branch?

                  I have been busy at work. I will try to test this branch out when i get home tonight.

                  Looking back on this. This was related to XOA at work not XO from sources.

                  I have also changed up our back up process and this has no longer been an issues for me.

                      We have allways been a veeam customer since vwmare. I have moved over to the beta version of veeam for our windows servers.

                      XOA is only backing up our linux servers. So half the workload was removed from backups.

                        Well i guess i should not have said anything. Backups have been running fine until tonight. Well technically last night. Got email alter that a backup job failed because job already running. This is one of my remote pools. But took a look at the memory usage in XOA..

                        9 total vms across 3 pools/locations. 3 vms at the remote site get backed up.

                          @acebmxer yes please ping Mathieu R and me ( Florent B ) on the ticket so we can get it as fast as possible

                          Would it be ok to extract the memory of the xoa with this PR https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/9704 ?
                          it should gives us pointers

                                        I am exactly on the same screen, but I won't jinx it and emit a hope before at least a few more hours
