Hi! Xen Orchestra team here. Our virtual appliance (XOA) is running on Jessie and few customers experienced this problem on XenServer too. I'm trying to investigate more to correlate if the affected customers did a migration before this happened (XOA is running on prem, so we can't monitor it directly).
Keep us posted for any bug report created on Debian side. Thanks! Olivier.
