    @acebmxer Can you suspend the vm ? If its not possible its most likely a kernel thing inside the vm. If you can suspend the vm however, it points more to a timing/timeout issue with the migration.

    Thanks for the help; this error has been resolved following the installation. However, we have a new issue regarding CBT. We are experiencing recurring CBT failures with the following configuration: Veeam Backup & Replication: 13.1.1.18 Hypervisor: XCP-ng 8.3, three hosts Identical packages on all hosts: sm-3.2.12-25.1.xcpng8.3 blktap-3.55.5-11.1.xcpng8.3 xapi-core-26.1.19-1.1.xcpng8.3 These packages were installed on October 3, 2026, before the failures occurred. Affected VM: NMNM-V-S-L007 Source disk UUID: 2f546ede-efcb-4ccf-8c23-2ea5a5e0d01f Storage: LVM over iSCSI, SR name 70TB_HDD SR UUID: 26d9572f-01c1-9cfd-79de-ca96eab601cf The backup job finishes with a Warning. The failing operation is VDI.list_changed_blocks, which returns: SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_460 Failed to calculate changed blocks for given VDIs. [opterr=Source and target VDI are unrelated] The logs show repeated failures on October 12 and 13, 2026. During cleanup of an older snapshot, CBT metadata is merged directly into the live disk despite the existence of a newer snapshot. This suggests a possible inconsistency in the CBT parent/child relationships, although the root cause has not been confirmed. The reference snapshot used on October 13 was deleted only after the CBT failures, so its subsequent absence does not explain those failures. Attached logs: cbt-old-vdi-history.txt cbt-source-disk-history.txt cbt-chain-cleanup.txt Please investigate CBT chain handling during snapshot creation and deletion, verify the installed Xen plug-in version, and advise whether a relevant hotfix or a supported procedure to re-establish CBT tracking is available. Thank you.cbt-old-vdi-history.txt cbt-chain-cleanup.txt [cbt-source-disk-history.txt.zip](Invalid file type .zip. Allowed types are: .png, .jpg, .bmp, .txt, .diff, .patch, .jpeg)

    @poddingue Turns out it is all secondary-to-secondary out of sync. So that makes it less intense, though if primary dies I wonder how it will resolve this, or if it will become split brained. Still unsure of how it happened, but the ones I manually cleaned up have not come back. Going to continue to manually clear them up. If it happens again I will have an alert setup to notify me, and I have all the xcp-ng logs and everything to be able to see what happened. If that happens I will post here with details and logs for the resource so we can see how it occurs. [image: image.jpeg]

    @AtaxyaNetwork Merci pour tes recherches ! Oui "cd_label" serait cool comme ajout au plugin ce qui permet sur les distro type Fedora/Redhat de ne pas avoir de boot_command à gérer
