      @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.
