@olivierlambert it's now 22 hours in with an estimated 13 hours to go... Fingers crossed.

Sad times...

Failed again, rhis probably needs a different post as it's a totally different error but if anyone spots this and has any ideas I'd appreciate the pointers;

At least, it's not related to XO

Something went wrong during the migration, could be many things. The logs on source and destination hosts might provide details on what went wrong.

Maybe you should consider some alternative methods to achieve your migration goal, such as using one of XO's backup methods to replicate the VM on the target server.

olivierlambert

Warm migration is probably the easiest one

logs on source and destination hosts

Are we talking, looking through /var/log or something that is in the XO interface somewhere? Going home, hosts, hostname, logs shows "Nothing so far" for both hosts.

Migrate whilst the VM is running? I was trying a migrate whilst shutdown as I assumed that would be easier.

Trying one more time.

olivierlambert

No, I specifically said warm, not live or hot migration It's an XO feature allowing to migrate in a kind of "safer" way.

garethw

@olivierlambert Ok, thanks. I'll look up warm migration and go from there.

garethw

I'm struggling to find the warm migration option (looking in advanced) is it on the features that's part of Starter/Enterprise/Premium? I have to admit that this XO is only on the Free account.

olivierlambert

You need a fully up to date XO (check that first). If you are on XOA Free, you might need a trial (send me a private chat message with your email registered to this XOA, so I can unlock you the free trial). Alternatively, you can also use XO from the sources
