        @Darkbeldin I increased my resources to match yours, but the export still fails. Watching in htop, the memory usage balloons at the point that the export task reaches 100%.

            @Darkbeldin For me, memory usage remained fairly low / stable until the export task completed in XO. The memory usage then ballooned to 100%.

                  @olivierlambert Appears to be working correctly on the latest commit. 👍

                      @olivierlambert While exporting a stopped VM, it's not possible to start the VM until the export finishes. So it might be good to add some form of warning message.

                        That's a behavior you have for XVA exports too, since it XenServer exists (you can export a disk while it's live, because… that would export garbage)

                          @olivierlambert Ran into an issue when I tried importing the newly exported OVA. Here's the error shown in the browser console --

                            @olivierlambert One way around that would be to optionally take a snapshot even if the VM is stopped.

                                @Danp hi

                                what is the mdisk size of the VM ? we're limited to 2TB per disk

                                  @florent Nothing large. Either 10 or 20GB. I'm thinking it's due to the same issue as here.
