      I recently migrated all my VMs to new hosts in a new pool via warm migration, which worked great, but I am now seeing "detached snapshots" for the VMs that I moved. I have tested on another VM which was created natively on one of the new hosts and it does not have the same problem.

      It says it has a "Missing VM":

      I also recently migrated from a Xen Orchestra container to another (x86 -> ARM), but unsure if that has anything to do with it - I restored my XO config from a metadata backup. The natively created VM was made after this move.

      Is there something I need to do or re-configure to prevent this? The snapshots appear to work, but I have not yet tried to revert to one.

        Looked at some other posts, it seems it probably does have something to do with my old XO. This is no longer active, can I re-associate the VMs with my current XO instance? I imported my config from a backup, so I thought that would cover it, my new XO instance spun up exactly like the old one.

        Broken snapshot (logs show it initiated from the pool master's IP):

        5505 HTTPS 123.456.789.2->:::80|Async.VM.snapshot

        ALLOWED' 'OK' 'API' 'VM.snapshot' (('vm' '' '' 'OpaqueRef:cce8c856-3310-a551-7cf3-f3ec6d68903d')

        Working snapshot (logs show it initiated from my XO's IP):

        62327 HTTPS 123.456.789.6->|Async.VM.snapshot

        ALLOWED' 'OK' 'API' 'VM.snapshot' (('vm' 'CCTV' 'cd95df02-a907-bdaa-2c0e-ca503656460b' 'OpaqueRef:00c31a47-69d9-753d-5481-d5a10e881e13')

        So it seems that the broken VMs are being initiated from the host they run on, not XO.
