Hi,

That's because our doc isn't fully up to date with the new naming (even XO in the app itself). See this recap:

@florent It was working before, this is likely something that has been broken when the handling of snapshots has been moved from VMs to VDIs.

We need to fix this.

@probain Noted in backlog

Question/suggestion to @julien-f and @florent

@probain As @olivierlambert said, Redis is used to story very little data, and we are already thinking about migrating away from it. We would like to use a simpler solution that would not require users to manage it like an SQLite database.

For the time being, we will likely keep Redis as long as it's available in open source distributions like Debian but we are keeping an eye on it 🙂

@julien-f
I can confirm that the fix worked! Snapshots are back and working.

I am impressed at how quick you managed to fix it too.
Thanks!
