<![CDATA[increase 24 hour timeout-limit on backup/copy]]>Is there any way to increase server timeout after 24 hours.

I want to use Continuous Replication on my VM. The backup destination is off-site so I am stuck with 8 Mbps upload limit, and it roughly will take 30hours to complete initial backup.

Thank you.

yes, the replication go through the XO VM, the faster the link the better the performances

I've used another XOA where the interface was 1Gbps, Source XCP-NG--->XOA---> Destination SR all were 1Gbps . In that case transfer time has significantly dropped to 5 hours. For continuous replication, from source data stream come to XOA at first and then to the destination.Here I had a misconception , I was thinking backup data directly send to destination from Source XCP-NG.Thanks everyone for your help always.

You always MUST be sure to get XO on latest commit before reporting an issue 🙂

That's written in our doc: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/community.html#report-a-bug

then you go to pool -> network and there is a drop down menu to enable NDB

(an older xo does not cause this issue, but gives us more tools to help)

I was seeing progress when the backup process was running. 96% was completed . It has dropped on that status.
How I can enable NBD.

also, you can try NBD (enable it in the network used by the backups); it's not a xapi task and won't be killed by the xapi , but you won't have a progres bar on the tasks

can you post the backup log ? It the json file you can obtain by clicking on the bottom facing arrow here :

I'm sending the XCP-NG(Source) VM backup to another XCP-NG(Destination) storage using XOA. I've changed the value of pending_task_timeout to 72 hours in source XCP-NG. Still the backup ended just after 24 hours.

Without anything more "it doesn't work", it's hard to help you. Please provide more information.

https://xcp-ng.org/docs/api.html#_24h-task-timeout

I then did a xe-toolstack-restart (which I assume is needed to updated the configuration). Restart had no errors, said "done" - but the toolstack isnt coming online, when I try and reconnect I get a connection refused, and accessing the host (https://10.1.3.8) also returns connection refused.

I then deleted the file created, and restarted the toolstack again:

[15:38 jerry xapi.conf.d]# xe-toolstack-restart
Executing xe-toolstack-restart
done.
[15:38 jerry xapi.conf.d]#

Nothing appears give an indication that something is broken. Is there a log somewhere I can have a look at to see what error may have occurred?

Just ran into this exact same issue and boom, you guys have it sorted 🙂

1 question, must the XAPI change be setup on both hosts (so the sending and receiving server)?

You are welcome 🙂 Our docs (XO and XCP-ng) are in a relatively good shape now, so that should be the first step when you search something!

And if it's not there, you can easily contribute to add it!

sure I will try to contribute and I did not expect the documentation was this great. Cheers!

The solution was in front of my nose. I did google search but it was all old and xen-server related.
Thank you

  • Please read this: https://xcp-ng.org/docs/api.html#_24h-task-timeout
  • Alternative is to use a seed, also explained in our doc: https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/continuous_replication.html#manual-initial-seed
