  Yesterday our backup job started failing for all VMs with the message: "Job canceled to protect the VDI chain" [image: 1761688213705-27cb4f46-c2fa-43e9-8bb0-5c9c5dd67b2a-image.png] I have checked the docs regarding VDI chain protection: https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/backup_troubleshooting#vdi-chain-protection The xcp-ng logs do not show any errors: [image: 1761688907443-f40b4a41-ad4a-4cf7-be70-dda098c1e274-image.png] [image: 1761689064402-19e6d7a1-d93a-4404-83bb-967b18364909-image.png] I am using TrueNAS as shared storage.

  Update: I tried to create a vm using a basic terraform config and using another template. Still the same problem, vm created without a disk. tofu apply -var-file="carlo111.tfvars" OpenTofu used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols: + create OpenTofu will perform the following actions: # module.vm.xenorchestra_vm.vm will be created + resource "xenorchestra_vm" "vm" { + auto_poweron = false + clone_type = "full" + core_os = false + cpu_cap = 0 + cpu_weight = 0 + cpus = 2 + destroy_cloud_config_vdi_after_boot = false + exp_nested_hvm = false + hvm_boot_firmware = "uefi" + id = (known after apply) + ipv4_addresses = (known after apply) + ipv6_addresses = (known after apply) + memory_max = 2126512128 + memory_min = (known after apply) + name_label = "carlo111" + power_state = "Running" + start_delay = 0 + template = "3dbf5448-0337-40e1-ebfc-f3f47e2cb0dd" + vga = "std" + videoram = 8 + disk { + name_label = "carlo111-osdisk" + position = (known after apply) + size = 32212254720 + sr_id = "589dad4d-2391-c2a9-589c-d34a9a7757ea" + vbd_id = (known after apply) + vdi_id = (known after apply) } + network { + device = (known after apply) + ipv4_addresses = (known after apply) + ipv6_addresses = (known after apply) + mac_address = (known after apply) + network_id = "d4ddcfb0-6d3e-d267-b200-d7d1fec1edc8" } } Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy. Do you want to perform these actions? OpenTofu will perform the actions described above. Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.
