vm-import failing - restore VM missing

markcasey

I am trying to do a vm-import using the vhd disks from a datto bcdr device.

Version 8.2 - latest patches applied
Using xcp-nc center 20.04.01.33

I have 2 problems
When it works I get a throughput of 1.2 mbps

Its now not working
I think I might have deleted the import vm ?
The log I am seeing is

Where is the import vm located ?
How can I get better throughput ?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

First, try to use a supported management tool for it (eg Xen Orchestra) to see if the import works better with it.

markcasey

Built a new Xo server.
I have tried importing a vhd and vmdk file and I am getting about 2mbit throughput different source and xcp-ng servers
Same throuhput problem

Any Ideas what I am looking for

I have to import 4 disks, the largest is ~600gb

It's a bit hard to tell with so little details

Could you provide more context, the network bandwidth between XO, XCP-ng, your PC where you import the drives etc.
