Timestamp lost in Continuous Replication

I’m a developer myself, so I can totally relate—just when you think everything is working perfectly, someone like me comes along
I’m really glad I could help contribute to finding a solution, and I’ll report back once I’ve tested the new commit. Thanks a lot for your work.

However, this does raise the question for me: is my use case for continuous replication really that unusual?

@kratos no, it's not that rare. I even saw in the wild replication on the same storage (wouldn't recommend it , though )

the cross pool replication is a little harder since the objects are each split on their own xen api, so the calls must be routed to the right one
We tested the harder part, not the mono xapi case

This may not be best practice.

in a two hosts pool, if your replicated VMs live on the Master, and it's gone, you won't be able to start the replicated VMs

you will first need to transition slave to master

indeed CR is better to another pool
