Another thing to check is the exact time between your XO and your host.
I installed the host with NTP from "static" DHCP (OK according to https://docs.xcp-ng.org/installation/requirements/) not made any manual changes/configs
After I did a RTC adjustment in BIOS 3 days ago, the time now is ~1s ahead
This is the output from timedatectl
[22:04 x2 ~]# timedatectl status
Local time: tor 2026-07-16 22:06:45 CEST
Universal time: tor 2026-07-16 20:06:45 UTC
RTC time: tor 2026-07-16 20:06:42
Time zone: Europe/Stockholm (CEST, +0200)
NTP enabled: yes
NTP synchronized: no
RTC in local TZ: no
DST active: yes
Last DST change: DST began at
sön 2026-03-29 01:59:59 CET
sön 2026-03-29 03:00:00 CEST
Next DST change: DST ends (the clock jumps one hour backwards) at
sön 2026-10-25 02:59:59 CEST
sön 2026-10-25 02:00:00 CET
NTP synchronized: no
I thought that the time would be adjusted automatically at reboot
The first NTP sync should allow a bigger step than when it's already synced.

do you make these backup regularly?
They run once a day @ 03:04 before the normal backup that starts @ 03:10 and they have all run OK since July 8, the failed one reported 8 days ago ( post ~85 )
Maybe you should resync your clock
NTP is enabled but not synced, I don't know the correct way to sync it
In xsconsole/ I tried Use DHCP NTP Servers
It changed the RTC clock to the same as UTC time but time was still 1s ahead and NTP not synced.
I rebooted the host and I got this:
[23:36 x2 ~]# timedatectl status
Local time: tor 2026-07-16 23:37:17 CEST
Universal time: tor 2026-07-16 21:37:17 UTC
RTC time: tor 2026-07-16 21:37:16
Time zone: Europe/Stockholm (CEST, +0200)
NTP enabled: yes
NTP synchronized: no
RTC in local TZ: no
DST active: yes
Last DST change: DST began at
sön 2026-03-29 01:59:59 CET
sön 2026-03-29 03:00:00 CEST

sön 2026-10-25 02:59:59 CEST
sön 2026-10-25 02:00:00 CET
NTP still not synced, Local time 2s ahead, RTC 1s ahead,
I don't know, If not someone can show me the proper way to manually resync, maybe I should try to reinstall the host
