RE: VMware migration tool: we need your feedback!
@ismo-conguairta said in VMware migration tool: we need your feedback!:
I have two different behaviour on two different XO instances. Each XO instance refers to a different pool (different hosts, same xcp-ng version). In both the instances I try to connect to the same Private Virtual Datacenter based on VMware/vSphere at OVH.
In the first one I get the following error message by using the web UI: "invalid parameters" (take a look at this logfile 2023-02-28T19_25_21.933Z - XO.txt )
In the second one, I get the following error message by using the web UI "404 Not Found https://<vsphere-ip>/folder/<vm-name>/<vm-name>.vmx?dsName=<datastore-name>"
By using the xo-cli I get the "404 Not Found" on both the instances.
Regarding the "404 Not Found", I want to point out that at OVH I have a VMware datacenter (with 2 hosts) and in order to access to the storage I need to specify the parameter
dcPath=<datacenter-name>
So the right URL should be https://<vsphere-ip>/folder/<vm-name>/<vm-name>.vmx?dcPath=<datacenter-name>&dsName=<datastore-name>
Simply adding (in a static way) the dcPath specification on line :54 of esxi.mjs file makes it work.
I thought it was constant. I will look into the api to get it, and if not possible expose it in the UI
@Seclusion : noted I will look into theis error message, this one is a first for me

RE: VMware migration tool: we need your feedback!
@KPS is there anything in the log ( journalctl ) ?
we can't migrate live data. Is the VM running ?

RE: libfuse.so: error adding symbols: File in wrong format
@Mark-C I can't test easily for now, but I think there may be an easier path after reviewing your solution
fuse-native use fuse-shared-library 1.0.2
from version 1.1 , fuse-shared-library should support ARM , maybe it is possible to bump it in the dependencies of fuse-native ?This way , it should still work without libfuse on the system, but also build it on arm

@techjeff Are your replication done with or without memory ?

RE: [Solved] Yet another question about Backup - why so small backup created with XOA?
@AlexTheBest strange, the ova file doesn't have any disk inside , only the metadata (for example the network)
I think I understand : xen (and xen orchestra) can only manage disks that are handled through the xen api These are created as Vhd files.
If you use passthrough/remote disks/raw disk , you're on your own.
Do you use this form to create VM ?
If yes, what is a "normal" volume ? -
RE: [Solved] Yet another question about Backup - why so small backup created with XOA?
@AlexTheBest I don't really understand what is a IMG file in this context , to be fair
could you share me this 27Kb xva file ? it's clearly broken (like it probably don't have any disk data in it) and I may be able to help

RE: [Solved] Yet another question about Backup - why so small backup created with XOA?
we also use some magic scripts for backup and restore, mostly here :
- https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/tree/master/packages/vhd-lib
- https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/tree/master/%40xen-orchestra/backups
- and a UX here https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/tree/master/packages/xo-web/src/xo-app/backup
The only difference is that we share them, and support them in the long run.
edit : still no success to use this magic to summon an entity from a superior realm, but we 're working on it
