      xcp used dellr640 dis pool as vm store, 4TB, single disk. it was local SR.
      Brought in trunas, set a SR device: /dev/sda, rebooted Dell, now VMs wont start.
      Current issue:
      Your SR metadata is partially lost.
      Specifically:
      The VDI files exist
      But XAPI has lost the VM ↔ VDI attachment records (VBDs)
      That is why:
      SR scan complains
      VMs have no disks
      XO only shows “Other install media”
      This is classic SR metadata desync, usually caused by:
      SR delete/recreate
      Interrupted SR introduce
      xapi restart during SR changes...
      How can I still use my current VM data?

      I am deep in the chatGPT hole.
      Any help is greatly warrantedScreen Shot 2025-12-29 at 22.27.52 PM.png Screen Shot 2025-12-29 at 22.28.19 PM.png Screen Shot 2025-12-29 at 22.28.25 PM.png Screen Shot 2025-12-29 at 22.28.53 PM.png .
