@HamiltonWDS Thanks for the report. As it works with wget let use it! I'll switch from curl to wget in doc. In the meantime some colleagues will investigate more.

@olivierlambert said in XOSTOR on 8.3?: As it's using the VHD format, there's no reason to be different. However, it's not impossible we configure it with the new format at some point, but loooong after we entirely validate it before. Anyway, this is coming to 8.3, it's a matter of weeks, at worst before the end of Q1. Nice, I hadn't realized that, I also don't use XOStor, but still good to know. Also glad to hear this limitation is finally getting moved beyong.

@olivierlambert said in XO (from source): backup error (to Wasabi): If you need another trial, no problem. To me, the problem is not in XOA (the broken commit was done after the monthly release) and fixed today, so it means it would be never shipped in XOA. Then I am fine, building XO from Sources provides me with the ability to backup my VMs, which was the only XOA "Feature" I was using... Thanks anyway!!!

1: Yes, I have seen some of @AtaxyaNetwork Proxmox posts. I'll go back and read them again. 2: No big deal, I only have like 5 vm's on Proxmox, V2V is my choice of tools!

The Xen / XCP-ng equivalent for VMXNET are Xen PV device drivers which either come from Citrix Xenserver, XCP-ng or the Xenserver project itself. Check the Wiki. It describes the installation pretty well: https://xcp-ng.org/docs/guests.html#windows As for 3D acceleration within the VM there is hardly a comparable option unless you do some PCIe pass through of a GPU.

According to Microsoft you need to use their built in backup feature or a software that supports AD and VSS which will tell the VM OS that it is going to be backed up. Unless you do this there might be corruption of the AD Databases according to Microsoft. ALL THO we've been backing up our AD servers with XOA snapshots (Both normal backup and incremental) and had only 1 issue since we started using XOA in 2016. Since that issue we also use a guest agent (From Ahsay CBS) that makes a Windows System State backup and Windows System Backup. More info about that can be found here: https://wiki.ahsay.com/doku.php?id=public:version_9:client:9447_system_state_backup_vs_system_backup

Just tried it again...it's all good now!

@fatek XOSTOR isn't currently compatible with the 8.3 beta, so you need to use XCP 8.2.1 if you want to use XOSTOR now.

So, yes, I had to create the interface again. Live migration on a 100gig network is looking pretty sweet!

Ticket has been updated. Thanks to Support. XOSTOR cluster has been successfully created.

Hi, No.

It is test not prod. Next week, I'll probably tear it down & re-install with 8.2

Just scrapped the previous XOSTOR install. I'm going to "trial" XOA + XOSTOR 1.0

We'll keep XOA standalone for XenServer, the pricing will likely change for those (per host and only with Premium). In your case, you'll have 2 options: going for XOA standalone for XenServer per host (dunno yet the price per host we'll have) migrating to XCP-ng to get an Essential bundle
