When importing a machine from VMware, Xen Orchestra says "Guest Tools status: The tools are installed." It says this for VMs where VMware tools are not installed.. and furthermore why does it matter when they need to be removed anyway? I'm not understanding what this message is for.

Health check scripts. Where is the example?
The documentation for the backup health check states:
An example in bash is shown in @xen-orchestra/backups/docs/healthcheck example/wait30seconds.sh
I'm not clear on where this is actually located nor have I been able to find it. -

Difference between types of metadata backup
Pardon me if this has been asked elsewhere but.. The documentation states:
In Xen Orchestra, Metadata backup is divided into two different options:
Pool metadata backup XO configuration backupWhat is the difference between these?

@florent increasing the timeout value was the solution. Thank you.

Restore job went off the rails. How to fix it?
I started a restore yesterday, and it said it was going to take some hours so I left it running.. When I came back to XO today, there are no pool tasks listed for importing, there is a API call: backupNg.importVmBackup task that is "started," and under Restore shows as started as well but there is no traffic between the system and the remote. It seems this backup will never complete, and I can't cancel it either. The raw data for the restore shows "transfer" is "pending."

@acebmxer Will try at the next opportunity.

RE: Async.VBD.eject always gets stuck
@olivierlambert Yes it is. I currently have one eject task at 0% for 19 hours...

Async.VBD.eject always gets stuck
I'm moving some VMs from ESXi to XCP-ng, and it seems that whenever I eject the tools iso, the Async.VBD.eject task never goes away unless I restart the toolstack. How can I get these tasks to complete?

RE: CPU radio buttons on usage graph
@DustinB Still there in commit d77d6. The deselected CPU disappears from the graph but reappears when it refreshes.

RE: CPU radio buttons on usage graph
@DustinB exactly. I figured that's what they were for but they don't seem to work for me.

CPU radio buttons on usage graph

What are these buttons actually supposed to do? When I toggle them, the graph changes for a moment then goes right back to how it was before.
