        I searched in xensource.log, SMlog and syslog, no related entries found 😞

        How can I increase the loglevel of XO?

        Here's the log output if I start this job again:

        Aug 15 01:10:35 ubuntu xo-server[616]: 2018-08-14T23:10:35.241Z xo:xapi Snapshotting VM pmg as [XO Backup test] pmg

        It's nearly nothing...

          @borzel > The error is often in the Settings->Logs panel in XO in this case

                  @borzel I'm not very familiar with github wikis, but I think you can do pull requests against the wiki.

                        @borzel I am struggling to match the error lines in your log with a source code, can you tell me what version of vhd-tool you have installed please ? (yum info vhd-tool)

                            Thanks,
                            I have found a suspected O_DIRECT here, the solution won't come quickly.

                              Does this issue also have a role if you run glusterfs on top of zfs?
                              Or is it just directly on zfs.

                              Because i would want to runs glusterfs on top of zfs on a spearate server, and use glusterfs driver to connect to it.

                              Do i also have this issue then?

                                          Hello everybody! Newbie here, just 24h of xcp use, I was trying set Raid 10, but xcp only support Raid 1, so I'm trying now to set raidz, like on the document, I'm using 4 disks (500gb each), but I want to do Raid on this 4 disks (sda,sdb,sdc,sdd), so I can't? Need to be 6 disks? 2 raid 1 with xcp, and 4 raidz for other things?

                                          1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0

                                            Hi,

                                            There is 2 different things:

                                            • soft RAID 1 support during install, using mdadm (the standard Linux software RAID mechanism)
                                            • ZFS support for storage repositories (where you store your VM disks)

                                            Regarding your use case, it depends. You can choose to install XCP-ng system without RAID and use only one disk, and the rest for ZFS SR. Or RAID1 for XCP-ng system, and the left disks for ZFS.
