XO user authentication - excessive and unknown tasks

@julien-f
Awesome, thank you for the update. So if I'm hearing you correctly, this seems to be more of a minor annoyance and not necessarily anything harmful or detrimental. Thank you for verifying this is on the roadmap. I'll hang tight until it is patched. Thank you for all your work and efforts on this project!

@stevezemlicka Exactly

So I've got a similar issue, but with slightly different additional sticky logs. So in my pic, "A" refers to this topic, but I also have the list "B" that is persistent between reboots of the Xen instance and even the Host server.
"A" will disappear with a refresh of the page... "B" is like the walking dead....

Is there a location I can go to on the server and remove them via the cli?

julien-f

@fataugie Those successful authentication logs (B) may be related to an old bug.

You can indeed delete them with xo-cli, either one by one or all task logs:

# a specific task
xo-cli rest del tasks/$id

# all of them
xo-cli rest del tasks

@julien-f Well, I tried to delete all.....and got this output:

tony@xenorchestra:~/XenOrchestraInstallerUpdater$ xo-cli rest del tasks

Have you registered your XO CLI to your XO instance first?

fataugie

@olivierlambert Well.....now I did.
After much hair pulling and gnashing of teeth, it worked as it should. I was unaware I needed to. Thanks

olivierlambert

It's documented here: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/architecture.html#xo-cli-cli

Happy to know it works now

@fataugie xo-cli will now display an explicit error in that case
