      I'm sure I did something wrong, but not sure what...

      Decided to update the pool yesterday. The whole thing went very smooth and we didn't drop so much as a phone call or database transaction.

      Simply moved all the VMs around to empty a host, then the 2nd and 3rd. Went very smooth.

      Today, I'm sitting here staring at the daily delta backup job, and it's been running for 11 hours and have transferred some 400GB so far. Normally, the daily backup takes 20-30 minutes and transfers between 15-30GB.

      What did I mess up?

        Probably nothing. See https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/2247/moved-vdi-delta-backup-restarts-on-full for details.

          What do you mean by moving? Moving the disk or just the VM memory?
