Just a note to say how well-designed the XO user interface is. No UI is perfect but XO does seem very well designed, things kind of just work the way you expect them to - that sometimes seems to be hard to achieve.
I just noticed a nice touch today; if you restore a VM from backup it automatically gets given a "restored from backup" tag. To me, things like this show that someone is thinking carefully about how the UI is used.
@stevezemlicka Thanks for mentioning this and reporting your "mistake" on the forums. I had been banging my head against the wall for a day before finding this post and realising the obvious.
Could you install your XO VM on a completely different host/hypervisor - for example, on Hyper-V on you PC?
I have one XO VM running on my XCP-NG pool and another XO VM running on an UNRAID server - just for these kind of situations.
@mauzilla said in XCP / XO and Truenas Scale or Core:
I opted to install Scale today but as murphy would have it, I did not know of the caveat of raid controller support only to find this just as I was about to setup the NFS mount. The servers I am using is Dell R720DX with H710 raid controller, and my understanding is that it's a no-go due ZFS and performance impact / possibility of data loss when using a raid controller. It's a bit of a logistical nightmare as I also don't feel comfortable in flashing vendor hardware with non-vendor firmware (just doesn't feel right for something meant to be in production) and I am 800km away from the cabinet so i've opted to take a chance until I find a suitable HBA card
FWIW I too have a R720 with a H710P RAID card. I was able to follow this guide https://fohdeesha.com/docs/perc.html to flash the card into "IT mode" and access the disks as HBA. It worked flawlessly and was fairly easy and quick to do. You can flash it back to RAID if needed.
My tests showed TrueNAS Scale worked well with the H710P in IT mode, seeing all the individual disks with no issue.
Eventually I decided to drop back to TrueNAS Core due to issues unrelated to the controller or disks.
All the access rights to the isos looked OK on the remote server but just to check I wiped the share. Recreated it and copied back the isos. In then recreated the SR in XCP-ng and now it works. It had all been working fine and I had not changed anything on the share - it just stopped working. So please consider this fixed now - looks like some weird issue with the mount and not a problem with XCP-ng - sorry for wasting your time looking at this.

Why is R/W access needed on the ISO SR?
@ronan-a said in Create VM Error SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_1200, No such Tapdisk.:
There is this error during the tapdisk open call: Permission denied (errno 13).
Are you sure you can access correctly to the data of your SR?
I'm pretty sure I can...

@olivierlambert Is it possible to rollback to a "standard" version of XCP-NG on these servers? I did a quick search to see if there was a way to rollback to a given XCP-NG version but did not find anything specific.
Checking the code of blktap2.py on github and what I have on my system and I can see that they are subtly different.
I note last change to blktap2.py on github was 6th April 2020, I installed XCPNG November last year but I had recently been testing with the new XOSTOR. Checking the date of blktap2.py I find that it is 24th May 2022 so possibly this is a bug with the latest XOSTOR release?
@Danp said in Create VM Error SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_1200, No such Tapdisk.:
Have you checked
SMlog?
Creating a new VM now and checking the SMLog I see the a similar error about the tapdisk (VM was created on the master host of the pool) ***** generic exception: vdi_attach: EXCEPTION <class 'blktap2.TapdiskNotRunning'>, No such Tapdisk(minor=5)

I rebooted the server that those I/O errors were occurring on - and that seems to have stopped the I/O errors. Yet the problem with
SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_1200, No such Tapdisk. is still occurring and I still cannot create new VMs.
Any ideas anyone?
I am seeing the same failure listed in the xen source log on the master host of the pool and also on one of the other hosts - I assume the server chosen to host the VM.

Would this be causing the problems I am seeing?
