XenServer gave error I'm not familiar with
-
@krisleslie Replace the the thumb drive like you did last time. Problem (temporarily) solved!
-
Gotcha, however, based on the error message I got, how would you fix that error specifically?
-
-
I would reread the thread from last year to refresh my memory on how I previously solved the same issue.
-
I would read any notes that I created a year ago when I replaced the faulty USB drive
-
Next I would replace the USB drive with the clone that I previously created
-
Finally I would restore my recent metadata backup

Did your flash drive ran out of space?

Not sure if it did as it's unreadable as far as I can tell.

@Danp I've gotta XenServer reinstalled without issue, the problem is now attaching the PBD back as a SR. Yes I followed the same instructions even though its not the same error it's in the neighborhood basically so yes that was done and everything was working fine until I key in the last command.

Technically the only thing I can think of is maybe the format is wrong on how I executing the commands. It's an EXT4 as far as I'm aware since I used thin provisioning. Which I'm moving away from it's too much of a pain in the ass.

Starting with XCP-ng 8.1, Ext4 is the default EXT filesystem for local SR unless you manually configured the previous version to use Ext4 then you should be using Ext3.

Hell i missed something. Tried to use xoa to attach the raid and it nuked it with no warning or notice. Lost a bunch of vms only one was needed my file server. But now I just went home. Hell -_- frustrated beyond belief.
I also attached it as a ext3 because the directions said lvm, that got me further but still have 1 error when attaching. I’m frustrated upset and all the above.
-
@black3dynamite good catch on 8.1 but i tried 8.0. In pissed even more so because the metadata backup basically was useless. Had 10 versions none worked without errror.
-
@krisleslie So are you are Citrix Xen or xcp-ng?
-
@biggen i actually have both. At work i have two host that are traditional 7.1. But other sites are Xcp. It’s the last site with the classic version.

Correction meant to say EXT3
