RE: Stupid question on deleting old snapshots.
You should be able to delete the snapshots without causing any harm. A couple of things to keep in mind --
-
If the snapshot is associated with an existing backup job, then the next run of that job will result in a full backup instead of a delta
-
It may take some time for the snapshots to coalesce following deletion, so this could still affect your backups until they are completely removed
-
If you want to delete the backups associated with the old job, then you can from the
Backup > Health
tab in XO

Interesting read that mentions xcp-ng!

RE: Merge two Pools
Yes, it's technically possible, as long as the underlying hardware is compatible. For example, you can't put a server using AMD processors into a pool with Intel processors.
The server being moved into the existing pool will lose its local storage and all VMs stored there, so you will need to migrate those VMs to the main pool before the server is merged. Afterwards, you can move them back if desired.

RE: Best way to migrate VMs from old pool to new?
I would setup a Continuous Replication backup job to create a duplicate VM on the new storage repository. When you are ready to perform the cutover, shutdown the original VM, perform one final run of the CR job, and then start the new VM on the new pool.

RE: Pools don't appear under Settings > Servers on fresh build of XO
@swaio Yes, I'm aware of the issue with that script ATM. I haven't decided on the best way to fix it. Perhaps display a warning instead of aborting the script.
Here are some steps that should allow you to successfully update using the existing script --
sudo n lts curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater/master/xo-update.sh | sudo bash sudo n 18 sudo systemctl restart xo-server.service

RE: All NFS remotes started to timeout during backup but worked fine a few days ago
@CodeMercenary Doesn't seem like an XO / XCP-ng issue. I would be troubleshooting it to see why neither NFS device will mount. How full are these devices?

@frank-s This PR is where the update occurred -- https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/pull/7836

RE: A task keeps poping up every second or so
@Kajetan321 Do you have any scripts or external processes making API calls? You can click this button to get more info on each entry under XO tasks --
You can plug the user ID value into the filter under Settings > Users to identify the account making the calls.

RE: Server 2022 install
@chuckb1968 No, your approach sounds fine. Do you see the VDI under the VM's Disks tab? If so, then it should be visible to the installation routine.

RE: Server 2022 install
Can you elaborate on what you are wanted to accomplish, because I don't see why you would want to install PERC drivers on a VM?
How did you make the USB drive available to the VM?

RE: Recovering hosts from a "fire": Multiple hosts in a pool becoming the pool master
@nick-lloyd I think the answer would depend on the state of your XAPI database given the fact that each host thinks that it in the pool master. To convert one or more of the hosts to a slave, you would need to --
- edit the file so that it contains
slave:<IP address of master>
instead ofmaster
- run
mv /var/xapi/state.db /var/xapi/state.db-old
to get rid of the old xapi database - reboot the host
Once rebooted, the xapi database will be regenerated by syncing with the pool master.
- edit the file so that it contains

RE: Recovering hosts from a "fire": Multiple hosts in a pool becoming the pool master
@nick-lloyd There's a file on each host that indicates whether it is a slave / master.
cat /etc/xensource/pool.conf
will displaymaster
on the pool master andslave:<IP address>
on other pool members where <IP address> is the IP of the pool master. -
RE: Recovering hosts from a "fire": Multiple hosts in a pool becoming the pool master
Did you have HA enabled on this pool? From your description, it sounds like they each promoted themselves to the pool master because the master was no longer reachable.

RE: Continuous Replication Job Causing XO to Crash
Hi,
-
The
xo-server-test
error log is benign (it displays every time xo-server starts). I would suggest looking earlier in the log for something more troubling, like running out of memory. -
The issue with operation blocked should clear itself up after the next backup job is run on this VM.
How much memory do you have allocated to the XO VM?
HTH, Dan

@jshiells Why don't you open a support ticket and allow us to take a look at this for you?
