        @florent On a quick CR test, fix_nbd_progress works correctly for me.

          @florent I have the current master (9a833) running now and it's working so far. No change in speed at this time (just testing CR delta).

          I did notice that the active tasks show only one Export/NBD but I have 4 configured. I don't know if this is a task view issue (I guess I only need to see one) or a true 1x NBD export.

            @florent Installed in the same test environment as last week, this time the backup ran successfully and the tasks cleared as usual. I will keep running this build over the next week but so far so good! I should note i am only running Delta backups at home. We use Delta + CR jobs in production at work but that is running full blown XOA. Is the plan to push this to XOA in the next monthly release?

                @florent Just updated XO and it ran my nightly backup without issues clearing tasks.
                Nicely done.

                  I am happy to hear this . I am working on this code almost full time since december

                  Did you try a restore / file restore to ensure the backups are exactly as intended ?

                          @florent Full VM restore went fine an VM booted.

                          File restore of a Windows VM does not work. Cannot select any files:

                            file level restore can be quite brittle , was it working on this VM with the previous code ?

                              @florent Yes it was, last time I used it. On Linux this VM works fine

                                @florent Where I do have an issue now is with Mirror incremental backup

                                All VM's have this issue and fail mirror.

                                Worked fine before the XO update yesterday:

                                  @florent Here is the log of the latest mirror job. All VM's are failing.

                                  Guess I'm reverting back.

                                    Did the mirror work after revert ?

                                        ok, so that's an issue with the mirror. I reproduced this night on my lab
                                        I am working on a fix

                                          @florent Pls advise here when it's fixed, so that I can retry. I will hold back until then.
                                          Backups are essential.
