Backup with local usb hdd attached - SR_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED
-
I have a virtual machine with the following configuration: sda - with OS, sdb - with data and sdc - hdd usb attach. As in the photo below.

And I want to make a backup only to sda and I receive the era below. How to configure the backup so that I don't have this error?

The disk SCSI 4:0:0:0 in your "Removable storage SR" doesn't support the snapshot operation. When you do a VM snapshot, it will snapshot all the disks by default.
We contributed to XAPI to allow VDI_ignore when doing a VM.snapshot, it's already available in XCP-ng 8.3 (but it's not a production ready platform). I don't know if this will solve it but in theory it should.
For your current case, the only possibility is to detach
xvdcto do the VM.snapshot -

Ok, thank you -
I tested the same thing with XCP-ng 8.3, it seems to work. I can't wait for it to be ready for production. The first impression is very good.
