Heyo... good stuff guys. I have recompiled on latest and can happily confirm that the fix has resolved the issue!!

Thanks!

@olivierlambert When I get a bit of time I'll do a bit of a more comprehensive write up outlining initial migration, actions taken, etc in a more cohesive manner. I'll also spin up a few non-critical spare hosts I have on hand and see if I can replicate it or not myself with different equipment.

As it stands now, all the hosts are on their own pool and in the process of running a comprehensive backups for everything to give me a bit of piece of mind. Once that's done, I'll get a bit more aggressive in my efforts!

@olivierlambert
Any suggestions to try? I had a similar suspicion, leading me to disconenct and reconnect the slave hosts using IP, https://<hostname>, and <hostname>... but all methods result in the same outcome a working pool, but unable to backup an VM on the slave hosts.

Not sure where else to go other than nuking everything and starting from scratch. Which means running backups on everything while the hosts are all masters and then playing 3 card monty with the vms in the process.

@Danp

Yep I've edited, removed, and readded the backup job.

I've nuked the xcp-ng install, resinstalled, xcp-ng, created a brand new debain 11 vm, compiled xo from source using latest master, added hosts to the pool, migrated vms to pool.

I've nuked the remote vdev, created a new vdev, added new vdev as new remote, setup a new backup job using new vdev.

I've detached all the hosts and left them in their own pool, used existing and new backup tasks.

The only time backups go through are when the vm is on a master, whether it be in one bit pool or three seperate pools (one for each host). If the vm is on a master it goes... if it isn't... Error: 302 Found

Just to double check to see if it's something awry with the xcp-ng install, I did a full clean install of xcp-ng. Added the two other machines (tc2 and tc3) to the pool and I'm getting the exact same issue. When backing up any vm's on tc2 and tc3, if part of a pool, I get an Error: 302 Found. As soon as i migrate the vms off, detach tc2/3, and migrate the vms back onto those machines as their own pool... backups go through just fine.

Okay so interestingly. If I detach a host from the pool and have it in it's own pool. Migrate a VM to that pool/host. Backups go through without issue.

The only time I have an issue is when trying to backup a vm on a host that isn't classified as a master of my primary pool. Not familiar enough with the workings to really guess at what's going on, but any guesses? Maybe just kill the pool, reinstall on the current master and recreate the pool?

@olivierlambert I hadn't explicitely stated as such, but this is with the latest master, all requirements checked, and a fully fresh rebuilt XO.

No dice. Moved all vms off host 3. Detached it from pool. Reattached it to the pool. Migrated a VM onto it. Backup of VM fails with Error: 302 Found. Migrated VM back to master... Back of VM succeeds without issue.

@Danp Yep, just the master showing.

Currently detaching one of the hosts and reattaching to the pool to see if that sorts anything out!

Problem Description:
So I'm fairly new to XCP-ng. I've been using it and the self compiled XO on a fairly basic setup (vms on local drive, no HA or anything fancy, etc) for about 6 months without any issue on some older servers in my homelab. I've been backing up to a truenas scale nfs share without issue the entire time. Recently I picked up some new lower power/noise hosts to use.

I installed XCP-ng on the 3 new hosts, added each to a new pool, and migrated the vm's off the old pool/hosts to the new ones. Everything seemed to be working fine, can migrate the vms between the new hosts etc. As such I decommissioned the old hosts and went on my merry way for about a week. Then I noticed that the weekly backup tasks show as failed. To be clear just the backups are the issue; snapshots, metadata, and configs are all working fine

After combing through the results, it seems that backups of any VM that isn't running on the master has an issue. I can backup any VM that's on the new master, but whenever I attempt a backup of a VM on either 2 of the other hosts, the backup fails with Error: 302 Found and I can't seem to figure out why/what's going on.

Efforts to solve so far:

• I migrated the XO vm to a different host to see if that changed anything, but still no success unless the backup target vm is on the pool master.
• I've run xe pool-emergency-reset-master master-address=x.x.x.x both with domain name and IP on the slave hosts to ensure it wasn't some sort of name resolution error
• Updated the remote back up storage address using IP and domain name to ensure name resolution there isn't an issue.
• Reset the toolstack, and even spun up a fresh XO vm all with the same results.
• Even spun up a new remote storage vdev to rule that out

I'm sure I've overlooked something fairly simple, but my google-fu is failing me here as I'm coming up with nearly zero results for Error: 302 Found pertaining to xcp-ng. Attaching log results from a failed attempt. Anything thoughts/help would be appreciated!
