      Before to dig deeper:

      • update your XO on latest version
      • update all your XCP-ng host

        I have to say that I'm having the same problems.

        everything is updated to the last version.

        xcp-ng 8.0.0

        xo-server 5.51.1
        xo-web 5.51.0

              @RKENS The question is more "has anyone getting issues with cont. replication" because we wouldn't keep a feature broken, especially with a feature that's used for our hundreds of customers 😉

              It might be related to your XO install, can you try with XOA?

                I will update my XOA next week. I just wanted to confirm that others are in fact able to use CR successfully, since the other guy (txsastre) mentioned he had already updated his XOA and he still had the same issue.

                Thanks,
                Russ

                  That's because likely @txsastre isn't using XOA. But XO from the sources or via a 3rd party script.

                    I have been trying to update from XOACE 5.49.0 to 5.51.1 . That's for both XO-Web and XO-Server. On 5.49.0 continuous Replication works perfectly but after an update to 5.51.1 they will fail with the exact same as in the image above. After a downgrade the Continuous Replication again works perfectly. The backup storage repository is a local remote storage repository dedicated for CR backups. It's as though something in the code has changed in the way that it accesses a local based storage repository. For now we have had to freeze updates until we can figure out why CR backups do not work. Please note that any backup that uses Delta or CR does not work anymore with XOACE 5.51.1 and a local storage repository. Is there any suggestions you may have on a different setup or possibly a missing plugin.

                    Another strange thing is that a previous SSL certificate that works with 5.49.0 does not work with 5.51.1 for the HTTPS setup of XO-Server.

                      @olivierlambert So does that mean that XO from sources will not support CR or delta backups?

                        hi there, yes we're using XOCE and I said that we have this problem because may be something wrong in the latests releases.

                        just trying to help the developers to show that there is a problem in the new versions, as I can see XOA is more tested may be because the XOCE users help to test it.

                        so my posts are intended to help not to complain about this wonderful product.

                          @LPJon not at all! It's just that the only tested environment is XOA. From the sources, you have to rely on community or yourself if you have problems. It's impossible to test on all platforms, that's why XOA is recommended for production 🙂

                          Also, bugs could happen into XO itself, on master branch (which shouldn't to often because we use features branches), but there's no guarantees 🙂

                            @txsastre that's exactly how I got it, no worries 😉 Having users on master branch helps to find bugs that we won't have to discover during QA phase before a XOA release 🙂

                            In this case, it's might be related to the guessVhdsize variable or something like that.

                              @olivierlambert I have looked into that with no success. I'm not sure if you just change that variable to false or if you just comment it out completely. I have tried both but neither had an affect on my situation. It seems the guessVhdsize variable is related to working with an nfs share for the remote which I don't have.

                              More or less you saying that this could be a bug in the master branch of XOCE but that XO is not showing this issue? What branch could I switch to that might be more stable?

                                1. No, guessVhdSize is NOT related to the remote, but to the way we send data to the destination server. Double check you enabled it correctly and restart XO after the modification.
                                2. No, I'm not saying this. Also, there's no stable branch on the sources, if you want something tested and stable, it's XOA 🙂

                                  @olivierlambert It came enabled by default with the upgrade to 5.51.1. What I might be having issues with is how to disable it the proper way for testing. I don't see anywhere where is says how to disable it, only how to enable it since there were failures happening with it disabled...lol. That's a tongue twister, anyway do you have any suggestions or might this be a question for Julien?

                                    I have no idea, guessVhdSize is only an intuition on my side. I'm pinging @julien-f who will try to answer Monday 🙂

                                      @LPJon Like all settings from config.toml and sample.config.toml, you can override it in your user config (probably /etc/xo-server/config.toml?):

                                      guessVhdSizeOnImport = false

                                        @julien-f Ok....thanks Olivier and Julien. Changing that setting in that way had no effect on the issue. You have any idea what would cause this from one version to the other. XCP-ng is version 7.5 with a second local storage repository.

                                          Hello,
                                          I experience this problem with CR job. xo-server 5.51.1
                                          I revent xo-server 5.50.1. No problem with this version.

                                          I found these errors in xensource.log. maybe not related:
