daily Continuous Replication backup in XO

vapaa

Hi,

I've set up a daily "continuous replication" backup, and for some reason, XO launches the job twice. Can somebody tell me why?

karlisi

I don't know why, but this is happening only on first schedule after each XO restart. Next schedules are working without issues. Every time this happens, first launch is exactly 1 minute before scheduled time, next launch is in time. I am using XO from sources. This started after I upgraded to xo-server 5.50.1, xo-web 5.50.2.

This is strange, are you sure you are up to date?

You should be using at least xo-server 5.50.1 and its dependency @xen-orchestra/cron 1.0.4.

both xo-server 5.50.1 and @xen-orchestra/cron 1.0.4 are in use

@vapaa Can you show me the scheduling config of your job please?

vapaa

@julien-f is that enough for you or do you need further details?

Hello,
Same problem here. Job start 2 seconds before scheduled time. And start again 2 seconds later exact scheduled time. First run finish successfully. Second run fail with this error: "the job (...) is already running"

XO 5.50.1 from source.

Hello again,
My CR jobs are same. This is happening only first schedule after each XO restart as @karlisi said.

@julien-f can we reproduce?

julien-f

I've setup some tests, we should know more in a couple of hours.

julien-f

Cannot reproduce.

@julien-f What is needed from me to understand what's happening? Today restarted my xo after os updates.

julien-f

It would help if you could reproduce the issue with the official XOA, because we know the environment and how it was built.

Or give me a step by step process (with all the backup config) to reproduce the issue.

Also, can you go into the directory of xo-server and show me the output of this command please:

> node -p '[require("./package").version, require("@xen-orchestra/cron/package").version]'

node -p '[require("./package").version, require("@xen-orchestra/cron/package").version]'

[ '5.50.1', '1.0.4' ]

The best (or worst), last night after XO restart all backups went without problems. Yesterday I upgraded Ubuntu kernel. And expanded XO disk, because initially it was set too small and there was almost no free space left.

karlisi

@julien-f I have no XOA. I installed XO on top of Ubuntu 18.04 using this script:
https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer
Upgrades are made using another script:
https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater
How to send config to You?

Funny.... I did the exact same thing yesterday in order to upgrade to Ubuntu 19.10. Now my Delta backup job has exhibited this same behavior of running twice after restarting XO.

I've just replicated it on the latest release channel of XOA. Let me know if you want me to also test it on the stable channel or if you want to remote into the VM to examine the setup.

@Danp Thank you, latest is fine, do you have by any chance a sure process to replicate the issue?
