[Bug?] SR_SOURCE_SPACE_INSUFFICIENT - Problems enabling HA

jr-m4

Next step in our lab testing was going to be to enable HA. For this we chose to go with a 500MB Fibre Channel LUN.

According to the docs, the minimum requirements are 356MB. https://xcp-ng.org/blog/2024/08/22/xcp-ng-high-availability-a-guide/

However, when I try to enable HA I will find an error in the logs saying SR_SOURCE_SPACE_INSUFFICIENT. (Full log down below).

So my question then becomes. Are the docs out of date, or could this possibly be something else under the hood?
Note: I'm currently waiting on the storage guy to expand the SR to 1GB.

Update: Changed title to better describe problem

Update:

We just expanded the SR to 2GB. And I'm still getting the same error.

Write permissions were verified by creating a vdi on the SR. And that was successfull with no problem.

@jr-m4 Hello, can you share your xensource.log file after using enable_ha call?
