    @Danp THANKS! That did the trick. I was able to clean up after doing that. Thanks so much!

    I am using XOA 5.106.2, I have a large incremental mirror backup running between my primary backup NFS and a remote NFS Remote. Apart from the task in the Backup tab saying it has started, there is no progress information in Tasks, so I have nothing to view on the status. It is very frustrating as I don't know how long the job has left. My current job has been running two days. I can confirm from the XOA command line with 'journalctl -f -u xo-server.service' that merges occasionally happen, but what about the actual transfer of data? The Remote NFS has IO load and it is updating the files in the directories for the Mirror-ed data. Do I need to look at a different log? Is there any way to see this information in XOA? I thought I read over a year ago that this was to be fixed in XOA 6 but I cannot find any reference to that any more in Google searches or this Forum. I can't run backups against the two VMs being mirrored as I get the 'lock error'. Before I open a support ticket I thought I would ask here. Can I view the progress/current status of a running Mirror Incremental backup job in the GUI? Do I need to enable some debugging manually?

    Cloud configs allow {{name}}% substitutions. From my perspective (as a user), for how {{name}} is used in my cloud configs something like {{address}} would be identical. What is the intended use case for the IPAM functionality in XOA if it can't be used like this? Real question, not trolling

    Also note the text at the top of your screenshot: to continue you need to select a boot device. There might be a way in that menu (or partition creation submenu) to mark that created partition as bootable, or maybe you just need to highlight/select the partition under "used devices" before hitting "done"

    @encryptblockr hope to try the same with their even smaller "CORE" images. There is not an .OVA download but .xz downloads that when expanded have .img . https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/22/stable/current/ubuntu-core-22-amd64.img.xz and https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/22/stable/current/ubuntu-core-22-amd64+intel-iot.img.xz cloud-init seems to require experimentation and these small images boot quickly for me. Are you then following Fohdeesha's instructions?

    File Restore Fails

    @NeilGrevitt Whilst migrating my other backups to NFS, I noticed that one of the VM backups is able to perform file restores successfully. The successful VM is Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, but has been upgraded multiple times and was originally a flavour of 18.x LTS somewhere along it's life. The unsuccessful VM is Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS that I believe was installed at this version. The only difference I can see is the output of lvscan, which does point to an issue with LVM! Successful VM: :~$ sudo lvscan :~$ Unsuccesful VM: :~$ sudo lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv' [<19.00 GiB] inherit Not sure where to go now but thought it worth reporting!

    @mauzilla Just an FYI, I have not tested the latest Scale 22.12 RC1 for performance but the previous versions of scale under some conditions was quite a bit slower. I have a video covering this topic here with the benchmarks and methodology used for testing. https://youtu.be/BoiHHnBDg0E

    Thanks all for your comments. I've managed to overcome the NFS errors listed, by using the new "multiple data blocks" setting! So for me, looks like backing up to .vhd won't work on either SMB or NFS.

    You can "reset" delta on an CR on two methods ( I use the firs one ) : Set number of full backup interval, under Advanced settings (left down). And can be predicted as fallow Reset = full backup interval / number of delta per day. So for 4 deltas per day Reset = 21/4 = 5 rest 1, reset will be on day 6 on first backup. [image: 1668752674017-e6f37d80-9c7d-4d16-bdea-903612fc251e-image.png] [image: 1668752712035-9eb6c381-a130-4d27-9e10-cd441338c666-image.png] Or on schedule on Replication retention [image: 1668753256557-6ac7be5a-b462-4e57-89cf-f58f20e4a4b4-image.png] Force full backup is to force full backup on next run

    @elementalwindx Hi ! From what I see in the screenshot, your backup is currently running. Do you have some error in Setting -> Logs ?
