      Yes but the database will be outdated and will work only for the version it was installed on (eg XenServer 7.0).

      BTW, there's no such thing as XCP-ng 7.0 😉

            If you restore the backup, you'll have your XAPI DB as it was before you made the upgrade 🙂

              olivierlambert Hugh Alright Sounds like I should able to just restore the backup and upgrade it again then?

                  That's a possibility, yes. If you think the DB state back in there is still relevant and you didn't create a lot of VM since your upgrade.

                      Great!

                      Next time, don't forget to get metadata backup for the pool. At least, your XAPI DB will be saved!

                          olivierlambert How can I backup Metadata directly? Seems like I'll need at least Enterprise if I want to backup it via XOA

                            LunarstarPony Either via Command line or SFTP or XCP-ng Center?

                              In XO: New backup/Metadata/Pool Metadata, select the backup repository, and that's it 🙂

                              What XOA Edition do you have?

                                  olivierlambert Oh BTW Since now I got a remote storage using NFS and I notice we got a thick provisioned disk(lvm), if I migrate the disk from that server to our new NFS Remote Storage, will that make the Virtual Disk thin and release the extra spaces? or it will remain as a Thick provisioned disk?

                                    LunarstarPony If it will still remain as a thick provisioned disk is there a way to change it to thin and reclaim space?

                                        es it will be instantly thin on destination.

                                        Okie So I should be able to just move all the VMs to our new Remote Storage then

                                          I'm having VDI_COPY_FAILED(End_of_file) issue while copying VMs rn Should I open a New post for this or you got any idea why this is happening?
                                          I provide the log up there

                                            Well, it's like the file couldn't be read correctly or corrupted. Can you try while the VM is off?
