      Likely a dumb question:

      I decided to see how NDB would affect backups.

      As I understand it, you need to do it from teh command and teh command is this:

      "xe network-param-add param-name=purpose param-key=nbd uuid=<network-uuid>"

      I went to the command line and typed "xe network-list"

      The network I use is this one:

      uuid ( RO) : xxxxxxxx-yyyyy-88bc-b327-zzzzzzzzzzzz
      name-label ( RW): Main Network
      name-description ( RW): Active / Active (Balance-SLB)
      bridge ( RO): xapi0

      I then typed :

      "xe network-param-add param-name=purpose param-key=nbd uuid=xxxxxxxx-yyyyy-88bc-b327-zzzzzzzzzzzz"

      It accepted it without error.
      If I run "xe network-list params=all" is see the field :

      " purpose (SRW): nbd"

      for the network above.

      The only issue is that the "NBD" field does not appear in the XO screen (Master, commit f9220) for the network does not populate.

      Thoughts ?

      Thanks!

        Ignore that entire post...user error. I have two networks that are spelled very close to the same thing and I was using the wrong one.
