    • RE: [VDDK V2V] Migration of VM that had more than 1 snapshot creates multiple VHDs

      @florent said in [VDDK V2V] Migration of VM that had more than 1 snapshot creates multiple VHDs:

      @MajorP93 the size are different between the disks, did you modify it since the snapshots ?

      would it be possible to take one new snapshot with the same disk structure ?

      Sorry it was my bad indeed.
      On the VMWare side there are 2 VMs that have almost the exact same name.
      When I checked for disk layout to verify this was an issue I looked at the wrong VM. 🤦

      I checked again and can confirm that the VM in question has 1x 60GiB and 1x 25GiB VMDK.

      So this is not an issue. It is working as intended.

      Thread can be closed / deleted.
      Sorry again and thanks for the replies.

      Best regards

    • RE: Async.VM.pool_migrate stuck at 57%

      @wmazren I had a similar issue which costed my many hours to troubleshoot.

      I'd advise you to check "dmesg" output within the VM that is not able to get live migrated.

      XCP-ng / Xen behaves different than VMWare regarding live migration.

      XCP-ng will interact with the linux kernel upon live migration and the kernel will try to freeze all processes before performing the live migration.

      In my case a "fuse" process blocked the graceful freezing of all processes and my live migration task also stuck in task view similar to your case.

      After solving the fuse process issue and therefore making the system able to live migrate the issue was gone.

      All of this can be viewed in dmesg as the kernel will tell you about what is being done during live migration via XCP-ng.

      //EDIT: another thing you might want to try is toggling "migration compression" in pool settings as well as making sure you have a dedicated connection / VLAN configured for the live migration. Those 2 things also helped my live migrations being faster and more robust.
