      @olivierlambert ok, maybe u experience some differences as well, we were on 8.3 since February and did patch last friday, since the patching is see a decrease.

      What i believe is happening is that GC processes are blocking other storage operations. So only if a coalece is done on an sr i see multiple actions like destroy, enable cbt and change block calculations being processed. As far as i know this was not the case before, they also could take some longer but it was not related to (or i have never noticed it).

      Maybe we can confirm if this behavior is by design or not?

          Anyone else experiencing this issue?
          https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/8713

          it's a long time bug that i believe is pretty easy to fix and get CBT backups to get more robust. Would be great if this can be implemented!

          rtjdamen created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra

          open CBT backup fails repeatedly due to leftover invalid CBT snapshots #8713

              @olivierlambert yes the fix is in the pipeline (on xapi side )
              it won't migrate a snapshot with cbt enabled, and won't allow to disable cbt on a snapshot

                    Support found that automatic refresh of our sr every 30 seconds delayed this. It seems we had this for a longer time but now it’s more aggressive. Disabled this as this is not required. This resolves our issue here.

                      Wow, rescan every 30sec? I thought the default value was 10 min or something πŸ€” Do you remember setting it manually at some point?

                        @olivierlambert No never changed it. From what i understand from Jon it's default this where his words "and all these SRs have auto-scan enabled. This means every 30 seconds, the pool master will scan the entirety of every SR". We changed this and the problem is gone.

                          Okay, I thought the autoscan was only for like 10 minutes or so, but hey I'm not deep down in the stack anymore πŸ˜„
