High Availability XO
-
@olivierlambert, is there any attempt at a HA XO Active / Standby failover support? I could not find much in the docs (or source code) and was wondering if there was any attempt to introduce this.
-
I understand, of course, that XO could be deployed as a HA VM, but let's say we wanted to run it on two dedicated servers.
-
@jgibbons You can run XO anywhere it will compile. So run as many as you want on multiple physical machines. It doesn’t have to be run in a VM on the actual xcp-ng hosts.

XOA is meant to be disposable. Config is pretty thin, all Xen objects are in memory only.
In case of problem, just deploy a new one and import the config. Works well for people who even lost their physical hypervisors (thanks for backup being entirely self-contained, even a fresh XOA is able to restore backups made by an old lost XOA)
