  @olivierlambert Thanks again for the reply. I’m looking into it more. I think I need to add the storage directly to the VM running XO. I was trying to use a drive connected to a drive on my local network. Though it says it can talk to the drive, it does not reach it. I’m trying now to add an NFS to the XO server.

  You can avoid transferring some disk data with the [NOBAK] title in the VM disk. However, a VM snapshot isn't capable of ignoring a disk. This would require a change either in the way we do backup in XO (not using VM.snapshot, but VDI.snapshot instead) or modify XCP-ng API to support VM.snapshot with excluded disk. The first option will make quiesce snapshots impossible. The other one is a bit more complicated to realize, but not impossible. The issue already exists in our bug tracker: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/2560 julien-f created this issue in vatesfr/xen-orchestra open [Full backups] Supports `[NOBAK]` #2560

  This may be related to https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp/issues/282 My guess is that the tools ISO was mounted into the XO VM, then updates were applied to the host that contained an update of the tools ISO, which led to the XO VM having an non-existing tools ISO still mounted. I have made a change in 8.1 to avoid that (eject all tools ISOs after updating the ISO, not just from shutdown VMs), and testing will tell us whether that's a good solution. To solve the situation, you usually just need to eject the ISO with xe vm-cd-eject, not xe vm-cd-remove, as @tuxen said. If you had a snapshot of the VM before removing the CD drive, I think restoring it should bring the CD drive back and then you can eject the CD with xe vm-cd-eject... Unless restoring the snapshot also fails. Else as tuxen said you need to recreate a CD/DVD device and attach it to the VM. iw0der created this issue in xcp-ng/xcp open This operation cannot be performed because the specified virtual disk could not be found #282

  It's pretty simple: just replace "xva" in the image by VHD and that's it. Otherwise it's explained https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/delta_backups.html If you still have questions, let me know

  For the moment I've had to create several backup jobs instead of one big backup it's e.g. servers01-06, 07-12, 13-18. Which isn't ideal as it's harder to manage, but is what it is!

  Hard to say from just a screenshot. What version of XO are you running? How long did you wait for the logs to load? Did you try refreshing the page? FWIW, I've noticed that XO seems to take longer to load this page than it did previously. P.S. Technically, you aren't running XOA (the pre-built XO appliance).

  Same answer as the other topic, as I exactly said in my previous post here: you can solve this in XO, Dashboard/health view.
