CBT: the thread to centralize your feedback
-
@olivierlambert Im leaving the VM itself on the shared NFS SR. The above error was triggered by putting a host in maintenance mode via XOA to install the RC2 update via ISO yesterday. Other times its just by checking off a number of VMs in XOA and clicking the migrate button, selecting another host within the same pool and clicking Ok. Everything should be staying on the same shared SR.
Its like the hosts can't read each others metadata for some reason?
-
Can you show me the exact UI steps you do in XO to do the migration? Then, in the task, are you seeing anything outside VM migrate?
-
I saw these errors in my log today after starting a replication job on commit 530c3. I have not migrated these VMs to a new host or an SR.

After changing NBD back to 1, I haven't seen any additional attached disks. However, the backup that originally succeeded with an attached disk has now failed. Odd that it will initially work with an attached disk but then fail with an attached disk.
-
i still have one VMs stuck without backup. Already restart it host and halt VM itself. SMlog have no records during 5minutes of that task.

It looks like all of my backups have started erroring with "can't create a stream from a metadata VDI, fall back to a base" I am using 1 NDB connection and I am not commit 530c3. I have attached the logs of a delta backup and a replication.

@Delgado this error sound like issues with the cbt that got invalid, could it be u had a host crash or storage issue? Does a retry create a working full?
-
@rtjdamen I haven't had any hosts crash recently or any storage issue from what I can tell. The "type" in the log says delta but the size of the backups definitely look like full backups. They're also labelled as key when I look at the restore points for delta backups.
-
@Delgado i believe this error message is incorrect, it should be something like "CBT invalid fall back to base", i have seen it random once in a while on a vm, and also with issues on a host or specific storage pool.
-
not sure is it CBT related, never seen that before. VM backup failed in 1min , as always, but task still looks like active.
-
@olivierlambert Any progress on the attached disks and multiple NBD connections issue?
Related, should we see any performance difference related to the number of NBD connections? I went from 4 to 1 and my backups are still taking the same amount of time.
-
I'm not the right person to ask, I'm not tracking this in details. In our own prod, with use more concurrency with 1x NBD connection and that's the best combo I found so far.
-
@olivierlambert Is there a specific person we should ping or link to watch to get updates on the status?
-
@florent is the main backup guy, but he's ultra busy. No guarantee, so the best isn't to ping anyone in particular and see if you have some feedback. If it's a priority, go directly on the pro support. But we'll do our best to answer here, however it can't be a priority vs support ticket.
-
as for about today commit https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/commit/ad8cd3791b9459b06d754defa657c97b66261eb3 - migraion still failing.
-
@Tristis-Oris Can you be more specific? What output do you exactly have?

Your issue seems to be related to a storage problem regarding the VDI
b3e09a17-9b08-48e5-8b47-93f16979b045. If your SR cannot be scanned due to whatever issue in it, you won't be able to do any operation, snapshot or migrate. I have the impression this problem isn't related at all with CBT. -
@olivierlambert Probably you right. i got that error with both pool's physical SR, but at other pools disks migration fine. So again iscsi problems?
-
@olivierlambert There's a current workaround with NBD connections set to 1 so it's not a priority. I was just looking for a way to keep an eye on the status of any work on it so I can help test, etc.
