Thank you.
So this host will have a separate network/storage partition since it will be in a dedicated pool?

Yes, the connection to this host should be quite good.

If I lose XOA on my master host, what is the procedure for start these replication VMs? From another XOA or Xo Lite? Once the incident is resolved, is it possible to merge the replication VM with the original VM?

Hello,

We have two hosts in a pool with 'classic' backups (Backup and delta).

I would like to mount a DR/CR plan by adding a third dedicated host of the first two in order to store the VMs ready to start.
His independence (but I may be mistaken) would allow him not to be subject to a failure of the master host.

How to add it in XOA without putting it in the same pool?

Basically, what are the best practices for this configuration?

Thank you,

For information :
The downgrade change nothing.
The only solution was to reinstall xcp with the upgrade option (even if it was up to date before the bios update)

If we go back to the original problem, the latest version of the Bios changes nothing (there is no information about the BIOS on the Host page)

@olivierlambert said in 2CRSI BIOS update not available:

I'm not aware of this problem, have you changed the mode (BIOS vs UEFI) after BIOS update? I think we already tested a BIOS update and it worked well. Let me ping @AtaxyaNetwork about this.

Hi,

Have you had any feedback on this issue?

Thanks

@olivierlambert No, i changed nothing.The boot Mode is UEFI (see first screenshot).
I will check if a downgrade (if it's possible) fix this issue.

Hey,

We have update the Bios to the latest version.

There is a new problem.. We cannot boot now.
The boot device 'XCP-NG' is missing

There doesn't seem to be any problem detecting disks in the BIOS (or clusters).

Do you know this problem ?
2CRSI support seems to say that the only solution is a reinstallation

Thanks and happy New Year

Ahah ok, it's fun!
I need to find the procedure for the update and I'll let you know.

Thanks!

@MathieuRA I think, i found a problem.
I have just check the Bios version during the boot of my host.
The Product Name is also NULL

It seems to be a factory configuration problem (2CRSI)

What type of information do I need to find in the product name (or Manufacturer Info on XOA) ? Just Server model?

@MathieuRA
Here is the information :

Hi,

The output is "True".
My two hosts have acces to the json script.

My servers are not 1.44gg but 1.4SR which is clearly visible in the script output (by the way, there's an error -> there is an extra "_" at the end of the last URL)

Is it possible to modify the script to work with the 1.4SR model?

Thank's

@gthvn1 I just have the latest version of XOA (latest branch).

Hop : f12475ad40702dd8ae2817d4446c360d380edda4d846a1bfee3ec88853e7060c /etc/xapi.d/plugins/ipmitool.py

Hi,

I have just copy the ipmitool on my two hosts but no changes.
Is there nothing else to do?

I have reboot the host and XOA.

Thanks.

XCP is now in version 8.3.0 here.

Thanks

Hey,

I just update my XOA with the last release (5.101.0) to check if the new feature which display the BIOS update worked.
I do have a 2CRSI server (Mona 1.4SR) but there is no information about the BIOS on the Host page

Thanks
