Working on ours for years without issues. 8.2 and since release 8.3

Might be some hardware issue...

@gduperrey said in XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing:

yum clean metadata ; yum update

OK, I'll try this next time.

P.S I've updated the 2 hosts via XO all teh time from 8.3 beta. Always showed patches available in XO. Started with the previous 8.3 updates that they didn't show and I had to run those commands.

said in XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing:

@gduperrey I wonder why now I have to run those commands on my hosts each time for the updates to show:

yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yum

Not fun

@gduperrey Can you explain why this is happening and how to get updates showing automatically again?

@gduperrey I wonder why now I have to run those commands on my hosts each time for the updates to show:

@ronan-a Great, thx again. Had the same issue and wasn't aware that there was a solution

@dthenot Done! Thx a lot.

After 8.3 updates I don't have to do anything I suppose?

@ronan-a Interesting!!! Can you please provide the command for installing the plugin on 8.3 (for those not experienced installing)?

Thx!

@olivierlambert Never heard of them so went to their site and what did I find:

Recommended? By whom? Gives the impression by vates.
And with the webinar below....

fixed in commit fcefa

@olivierlambert Master, commit fcefa: fixed!

@florent I always have/had NBD enabled!

@flakpyro Spent the better part of my Saturday on this because I was looking in the wrong direction, when it is just a newly introduced bug....

@florent @olivierlambert Introduced bug: https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/11005/backup-tasks-exporting-vdi-stopped-showing-progression

commit d8370: same
commit e4959: same
commit 1a7b5: shows exporting VDI percentage just fine (was the last time I actively monitored backup because of https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/94267)
commit 7994f: shows exporting VDI percentage just fine

Sp between 7994f and e4959 something was introduced that causes this.

Staying on 7994f for the time being

@florent

Was: backup tasks stopped showing after moving VM disks to shared NFS SR

Hi

I have my VM's running on 2 Protectli hosts. I have used a shared QNAP NFS SR as storage for backups.

Migrating VM's between hosts signified also moving the disks, taking longer than it would be if the disks were on shared storage.
Also RPU is not possible.

So I moved all VM disks to shared NFS storage. No problem there, all running fine.

BUT when backups are running and I look at the tasks I see:
The snapshot being created and then for a second the disk backup beginning BUT where I would normally see the progressing taks with percentage nothing is shown. Blank.
This while the tasks are clearly running as the backup progresses (network stats on XO VM and hosts showing progression and network/disk stats on the NFS host).
The backup tasks just finish fine.

UPDATE: Actually it had nothing to do with the move to shared storage but it's an issue with XO

Reverted back to commit d8370: same issue
Trying to go back further if I can pinpoint when this started....

@florent Master, commit d8370 Issue is solved!

@acebmxer Installed Master, commit 8fb3c and still the gui is wrong. It depends on your screen width!!

@florent Also here in the overview. The line spills over:
