      What client did you use to create the VM? It's not normal that your VM is connected to a snapshot disk.

        Not sure what do you mean by client. the way I created this is using a template that I created:

        Please let me know if this not what you needed, and how should I get that information?

          Have you used anything else than Xen Orchestra to create VMs and manage things?

            Not recently, I have used Xen admin Center initially when I was starting just to deploy Xen Orchestra and after that it is all Xen Orchestra.

              I don't know how you could end by having a snapshot disk as your main disk for a VM 🤔

                I took a snapshot of the vm last 3 Feb 2023, it is still there and I have not deleted it. Is this the reason why encounter this problem?

                  No, that's why I don't understand how you could have connected a snapshot disk to the VM in the first place.

                    Is there a way to make the HD visible in XO? If not what is the command to fail it over to different storage in xcp-ng?

                      You probably need to transform the disk in a "regular" and not snapshot. It's not a normal use case to use a snapshot as a main VM disk.

                        I do not understand wha t you mean by "You probably need to transform the disk in a "regular" and not snapshot". Not sure on how to do that, please provide the steps or if you have SOP ready, please point me to the SOP document.
