    @olivierlambert Hi, Yes, I have "Merge backups synchronously" enabled on the Local Backups jobs but still get the error as the Mirror Job has a lock on the VM data. Error/Message: "the writer IncrementalRemoteWriter has failed the step writer.beforeBackup() with error Lock file is already being held. It won't be used anymore in this job execution." Start: 2025-07-26 21:17 End: 2025-07-26 21:17 Duration: a few seconds Error: Lock file is already being held Thanks.

    @sidsanders Hi, I gave a look at your issue, it seems that it is often associated with the ssl certificate missing the middle of the Merkle chain. here are a couple of explanations: https://serverfault.com/questions/693033/unable-to-use-builtin-ca-bundle-to-verify-godaddy-sha2-ssl-certificate https://www.npmjs.com/package/ssl-root-cas I suspect that the certificate you gave to minio was incomplete. Note that the chain of certificate should not include the root certificate, only all the certificates in the chain minus the root. Nico.

    Oh okay, so it's not a NAT issue then (thought XOA and the host were not together). Might be this issue then, please comment in the GH issue you posted to report you have the same problem edit: with your log too!

    @dr4s1l-0 @Dr4s1l-0 you will not see the config drive mounted in your system, cloud-init only mounts it temporarily very early on in the boot process, copies the found config files off of it, and unmounts it. Mounting it manually will just cause more issues. You can probably see it being mounted early on in the logs in /var/log/cloud-init.log Cloud-init has introduced a ton of bugs this year and has no documentation regarding them, it has been a nightmare to try and track down these issues - I have a support customer with the same issue on recent versions of ubuntu and I've gotten nowhere. At this point I think it's best to take it up with the upstream project, cloud-init - from the XOA/XCP perspective we're doing everything we can, resulting in presenting a properly configured config drive - any issue after that is the cloud-init package

    What does the memory min/max settings look like in the advanced tab of those VM's? You could try to set the dynamic min/max to same values. Could very well be that your guest OS doesn't handle it properly when host is trying to dynamically adjust the available VM memory. Although this shouldn't happen (afaik) if there's plenty of memory available on the host, but worth a try at least.

    Hi, The Docker container isn't coming from us, so there's no way to know where is the problem. Please contact the 3rd party provider for this Docker repo.

    Yes, totally makes sense. Thanks! Consequently, best to accomplish the intended behavior from within the Windows VMs.
