    XenCenter 7 snapshot file size

    in Administrator Console

    Posted

    Simple question....I am trying to determine the file size of a snapshot taken of a XenCenter 7 VM Server VM. Is it possible to do this from XenCenter...or from the CLI? 

     

    I have done some googling and am having a difficult time trying to find an answer to this one. I have not been able to determine where on the host system the snapshots are stored or how to find the file size.  Thanks for any input. 

    XenCenter 7 connection to Server Pools failed

    in Administrator Console

    Posted

    I have a XenCenter 7 host that seems to have lost connection to all Server Pools, though the VMs do not seem to have gone down. The log shows the following

      

    2021-11-03 16:40:12,156 ERROR XenAdmin.Network.Heartbeat [Heartbeat for 10.45.0.41] - System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: A connection that was expected to be kept alive was closed by the server. ---> System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine
   at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size)
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

     

    No problem with reconnecting to server pools. Just curious what would have caused this and how to avoid it in the future. Does not seem to be more than an annoyance at this point. 

     

    Reading up on it, it seems Xen didnt send the correct API request but I would like to know what to do to avoid this in the future. Thanks for any input.

    xva backup fails to import

    looks like 890gb free on the SR

     

    As for the xe task-list output....looks like an upload task and VM console connection - both pending. going to read up on what these mean

    xva backup fails to import

    in Windows Guest Installation

    Posted

    We are running XenCenter 7 (build 7.0.1.3852 running on WinServer 2008) and trying to import a backed up .xva VM, that fails (we have numerous monthly backups that all fail)

     

    To import the xva from XenCenter: File > Import > Browse > select the desired monthly xva > Next > Select the Server pool > Storage > Import > Select network config > Finish....pretty standard import.

     

    The process failure time varies but it usually takes awhile...an hour or two maybe. The logs dont reveal anything that is helpful to me, but I am pretty green to the Xen environment. Any input as to what would be causing this failure?
