Backups with qcow2 enabled
-
Sorry if i have missed this if it was noted. But I do not see any progress bar or percentage increase when backups are running.
This in my home lab.


I think the import is showing progress for the vm (docker of things) because the the target storage is not qcow2 enabled (yet) its reconverting it on the fly. -[XO] Importing content into VDI [Importing] Docker of Things
Also vms will get this error sometimes.

reran failed vm and it completed.Updated to XO to latest commit was 4 behind (88a89) and ran backups again.

@acebmxer you need to enable NBD on the backup to ensure ti works with qcow2
we 'll check for the progress bar

@acebmxer did you enabled NBD on the network ( in the pool view ? ) is it a network accessible by the xo ?
