@MathieuRA Thank you!

This will come for some vendors (with their own APIs). We do not want to use SSH for that though (XO never use SSH).

He's asking about XO ACLs, so it won't be with xe but with XO 😉

You can get that with the JSON RPC API, see https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/architecture#xo-cli-cli for more details.

@Don-Gould-NZ I wonder if this system got cloned as intended. I see 2 devices in XO, that will be xvda and xvdb. Yet earlier you listed it was one device with two partitions. The 512M size of the 2nd device makes me wonder if the migration turned the disk partitions into devices with partition/swap signature and nothing else.

As such since the system looks for xvda's 2nd partition for root, there's no partitions so naturally it fails.

You could get SystemRescueCD, boot off that and investigate the devices.

@DustinB Totally in line with you but in the meantime since i figure this cli out too now i am totally ok with what i have currently and its not too pressing.

@Vinylrider Lol i like this 🙂 getting stuff done customized haha! Great pictures.

@CodeMercenary said in Seeking advice on debugging unexplained change in server fan speed:

@DustinB I wish I had asked the question here earlier. I asked it a little while ago on ServerFault.com, figuring that was the best place for this question since it has nothing to do with XCP-ng. Nobody has answered and one person even downvoted it without saying why.

If you use ServerFault and you answer over there, I'll mark it as an answer if this works, so you can get some internet points.
https://serverfault.com/questions/1169753/what-might-cause-server-fans-to-double-in-rpm-after-a-simple-reboot

I don't think I've ever signed up over there, but I'll take a look.

Just replied for anyone else who may need it in the future. I'm Jarli

@Andrew I did not see a serial port listed. I'll just get a USB version and plug in to server and see if I can pass thru it. If it works, I can get rid of another Destop server and be fully virtual.
Thanks for your hellp.

@propsoft said in Can .keeper files be deleted from the backup share?:

@florent Thank you.
I just like things to be 'tidy' that's why I asked.

Then stop looking at hidden files.... HA

@Danp Restarted whole server.

Hi Guys,

Just to report back. Got it working. Two ways to do this.

1.) Create 2 schedules for one backup job, forcing one to run as full.
2.) Run backup until the next backup interval is going to do a full. Disable backup, and wait until a time that when enabled will hit the time you want the full to run. In my case after 5pm. I appreciate this way is not practical, but does work.

Appreciate you help guys !!

Many thanks @nathanael-h & @shinuza , both approaches indeed work!

@dinhngtu It happened again to me.... Windows 10 22H2 on XCP 8.2.1...

Same issue as others. Windows reports a USB driver issue. Disabling/re-enabling the windows driver makes it work again.

To answer your question, Yes, reverting to a snapshot with memory keeps the problem of a failed USB/mouse.

@DustinB

As to why you're seeing "VM not found!" I don't know if that is a XO alert or something you added into the screenshot, I've never seen that so I can't speak to it.

I didn't add the text, all I did was highlight it with the red surround.

Just testing the backups again using the 'Delta' method and '[NOSNAP][NOBAK] Data drive' as the name of the second drive , feeling more hopeful about this one though.

I'm starting to like XO the more I use it, would be good to move to this instead of switching between 2 different XCP-ng Center EXEs. depending on the XCP-ng version on the host so I really hope I can get this to work.

The scheduled hourly snapshot while the guest is running looks a great feature, although I need to learn to walk with this first before I go that far 🙂

@nathanael-h might help too
