increase 24 hour timeout-limit on backup/copy

onur

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.

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

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

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!
