@ScarfAntennae hello, and thanks for the suggestion. I am discussing it with the XO Team to add it to our next features. Have a good day!

Good things take time. Your team is doing god's work. Remember to stay healthy, in both mind and body!

@bufanda I'm sure all my backup since this bug was appear in my system is Full backup, I don't know if the two issues are related but they appeared at the same time.

I second 4 being a good sweet spot, I personally have seen very little improvement from going higher than 4 in my environments.

Any of the host: if they are in the same pool, that's logical. Only the master is needed to be reach. XAPI will probably be in "Starting state" as long as all SR aren't plugged. If you have the SR on a VM on another host than the master, reboot the master only, you should be able to connect sooner Alternatively, check https://docs.xcp-ng.org/troubleshooting/

You do not enable NBD in your VM, you enable NBD on a XCP-ng network, that's it. There's no drawback to enable it (well, it's a new service exposed but it's OK)

You can with the JSON-RPC API. The REST API is still very young, and we only started to modify objects during January release.
