How do I make these settings permanent even if I update the server?

ALLOW: class=0a # CDC-Data
ALLOW: class=0b # Smartcard

from /etc/xensource/usb-policy.conf

Thank you

Gheppy

hmm,
I found the solution, after I read here on forum.
I enable this options and save and then disable and save and now is ok. Task is running again. It is running with last commit to
So the problem is with these settings which may not exist in the task created before the update.

@florent
I will update to the latest version and look at the logs.
Now I have version 7994fc52c31821c2ad482471319551ee00dc1472

Gheppy

@olivierlambert
I update to last commit, two more change is on git now

The problem still exists. From what I've noticed, export tasks start being created and then disappear shortly after. And then a few moments later the import tasks appear and it remains blocked like this.

Only up to this commit 7994fc52c31821c2ad482471319551ee00dc1472 (inclusive) , everything is ok.

EDIT: I read on the forum about similar problems. I don't have NBD enabled.

@olivierlambert
The problem start with this commit cbc07b319fea940cab77bc163dfd4c4d7f886776
This is ok 7994fc52c31821c2ad482471319551ee00dc1472

Hello, the problem has reappeared.
This time with a different behavior.
It hangs at this stage, and the export tasks do not even start/show.

Info:

XCP-ng 8.3 up to date,
XOCE commit fcefaaea85651c3c0bb40bfba8199dd4e963211c

Gheppy

I tested with commit e64c434 and it is ok.
Thank you

Gheppy

Hello,
I have problems with continuous replication, meaning that if I choose to do it on a single SR everything is ok but if I add two or more SRs it crashes and gives the error message below.
The problem is that it does nothing, it stays stuck and it is always the first SR in the list.
Info:

XCP-ng 8.3 up to date,
XOCE commit 6ecab

Here it is with only one SR and everything is ok:

configuration:

Here it is with two SRs

It works for me again, thanks for your support

Gheppy

I have a problem after commit 6e508b0.
I can no longer select the export method.
With 6e508b0, all are ok

Commit a386680

Commit 6e508b0

Gheppy

At a certain point, I don't know when because we are talking about a home lab here.
I could attach the USB HDD same as a virtual HDD and I could put exclusions on it

Gheppy

More detailed:
At the moment I have this:
A VM with TrueNAS that has:

sda 100Gb, the operating system
sdb 2Tb, the first hdd to use in TrueNAS
sdc 2Tb USB, clone of sdb 2Tb made in TrueNAS

I want to backup the TrueNAS system, which means only sda
I excluded sdb via [NOBAK] [NOSNAP]
But I can no longer exclude sdc via [NOBAK] [NOSNAP]

Gheppy

Is there a possibility to implement the same options as for disks, for VUSB to?
I mean the option to use [NOBAK] [NOSNAP].
Before the update, I saw the USB-HDD as a normal disk that I could attach to VM and use the [NOBAK] option to excluded it from the backup.
I have XCP-ng 8.3 is installed on the server.

Gheppy

This is what I was thinking

[NOSNAP] to be like SDA and disk 3
[NOBAK] to be with SDA and disk 2
In both cases disk 4 is excluded

Gheppy

From my point of view, it should be with "OR" and if the condition is fulfilled to execute.
E.g :

if I have "[NOSNAP] 'VM name' " not to execute snapshoot
if I have "[NOBAK] 'Vm name' " not to execute backup
if I have "[NOSNAP] [NOBAK] 'Vm name' " not to execute snapshot and backup
But if you make a backup, remove only what is with [NOBAK]

Gheppy

It's not really necessary.
As I said, I have 3 x DC and I restored them in the test lab and they were ok.
All three were backed up at the same time with a single normal backup task.
Below is the task I was talking about.

Gheppy

@fatek
AD has a maximum period of difference between Domain Controller's and as far as I know it is 24h.
If you don't do this, the oldest one will be out of sync and useless.

Gheppy

I have something like this and I have no problems so far.
The only thing is to do them all on the same day.
I have a task that backs up all three VMs at once.
And the restoration is done the same way, all from the same day.

Gheppy

@AtaxyaNetwork
thank you
