XO Backup [NOBAK] for full backups
-
Just coming back to this: @olivierlambert
(1) what is the approximate timeframe for VDI.snapshot ?
(2) You said "we have indeed webhooks but for jobs, I wonder it might be trivial to get them for backup" - is that likely to happen soon?
I can't do the code but I can test... -
Here's another case in XCP-ng/Xen, which pre/post hooks for XO backups could be used to solve:
Any way to backup VM with USB attached?
There are many situations in which it would be desirable to shut down a VM before backup and start it up again afterwards, especially these cases in which a storage device or USB device needs to be detached or the backup won't run...

@normanghenderson I'm currently working on this feature, I had hoped to be able to release this for the September release but due to last minute issue it will likely be postponed for the end of October.
Note that this will ship in the proxy first before making its way to regular backups.
Best regards,

@julien-f Thanks very much. Let me know when there is something to test.

@normanghenderson Hi Julien, Happy New Year. Just touching base on this? I just made an attempt with xo-server 5.73.0 xo-web 5.76.0 and got the usual SR_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED due to the large disk.
-
I think it's coming this release, isn't it @julien-f ?
-
@normanghenderson Yep, it should be coming at the end of the month

-
@julien-f Excellent, thank you!
-
Has this been implemented yet?
I've tried the [NOBAK] method, and the disk still gets cycled into the weekly VM backup. -
Running the latest xen orchestra. Just finished our latest weekly backup. It still backed up the 1TB disk I had labeled as [NOBAK].
-
@mrbaz I don't think its been implemented yet. Its coming from what I've read though.
-
It should be for this release, this time
@julien-f is working on it!
