      Any chance you previously saved the metadata to your SR?

      No.

        I dont even think I can migrate the VM's off.

        I was afraid of this.

          I can however restore my backups from 6 days ago to my remote host, and inside of the VM's boot from SPX recovery environment and restore from there.

              Nothing recent enough to try I don't think. I do have a clone of this USB though.

                Well how the f*** *[moderated] do you expect to do maintenance or anything on them?!

                  Hold on dude..
                  your data is still probably just fine..

                  As long as XC still works, pull the data i mentioned before - find all the uuid's from all drives and their mounted order to each VM and write it down.
                  then you'll shut down the server, replace the USB drive, then install XS then install updates,
                  then attach SR
                  then start remaking your VMs by hand and attach your VDIs to the VMs and boot

                    Make another copy and then boot from that. What's the worst that could happen? 🙂

                      Yeah I would definitely try...

                      1. booting from your cloned USB
                      2. reinstalling XS and recreating your VMs by hand as Dash has suggested
                      3. doing a restore

                      In that order.

                      I played with XS a lot moving the boot drive and stuff and it was pretty resilient.

                        How do I get the disk UUIDs for the Vm's?

                          xe vm-list
                          or
                          xe vdi-list for disks

                            I wonder if that will work for him?

                            Seems like anything the host has to do fails...

                              If those wont work in cli, you still can use XC to get this info. Or XO i imagine has this info listed on its web interface.

                                  Is there a way to use xe vdi-list against specific VM's so I can see it all?

                                        In XC, click the VDI, and then STORAGE (on the menu) and COPY UUID TO CLIPBOARD.
