@RobWhalley I think in the beginning i had that option enabled in my backup jobs, but found it was a hassle to move VMs between hosts with it on so i turned it off for all backups. Might be why my jobs worked because i had already done that switch in the past.

RE: Backups started to fail again (overall status: failure, but both snapshot and transfer returns success)
try downgrading your nfs to use version 3. I think version 4.x has performance issues.
in you settings-->remote, you can edit the nfs mount for backups and add in the -o options section.I dont know the exact command but you can try using nfsvers=3 and see if that helps.

RE: XO Community edition backups dont work as of build 6b263
scratch that prior comment. My backups are all setup as delta backup with schedule 2nd run that forces full backup. So i believe both are working correctly.



if you can also try deleting all the backup snapshots of the VMs in the backup and running full backup then the delta backup jobs.

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing

RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing
after i manually applied the patches, i used XO to reboot the host 2.
After the host 2 rebooted, XO still showed the task running and the host2 showed it needed to be patched. I rebooted XO and the task is still there ( been there for 13 hours now lol. ) but now host 2 shows patched -
RE: XCP-ng 8.3 updates announcements and testing
latest patches, host1 /master patches went well and rebooted. moved vms over.
host 2 in pool click on patch and it just sat there.

i ssh into the host2 yum clean metadata and yum update manually applied updates.
XO still showed host 2 needing patching, so i reboot it. XO still showed host 2 need patches.
I rebooted XO. host 2 shows patch, and task still remains in XO. Any idea how to clear it out from XO. or is it wait 24 hours kinds of thing? -
