      Hi!

      I am having a problem with my XOCE system on commit 317e4, xo-server 5.107.5 and XCP-ng 8.2.

      After every run of a delta-backup, there is a VDI, that is attached to the control-domain of one of the XCP-ng-nodes. If I do not manually handle this throug reboot and forget, the snapshot-chain of the VM is getting longer and longer, until no backups are possible.

      SMLog is only showing:

      ...every 30s.

      Do you have any idea, why this happens and what I can do?

      On XOCE, NBD is activated, but not used for that job.

      Thank you and best wishes

          Hi!

          I was able to isolate the issue: It does happen, if NBD is activated on one of the network interfaces!

           xe network-param-remove param-name=purpose param-key=nbd uuid=xxxxxxxx

          --> Disabling "useNBD" did not solve the issue. I had to disable the feature in XCP-ng
