VDI missing after trying to fix backup issue
-
Hi,
little over a week ago, one of my VM's backup started to have some hickups after i accidentally rebooted XO (or was it toolstack restart, cant remember) during backups...
After that hickup my delta backup started throwing this error:
Error: The value of "offset" is out of range. It must be >= 0 and <= 102399. Received 102400I kept getting this error everyday, so i tried resetting the backups by removing the snapshot that existed.
Removing snapshot did not help so i disabled CBT and removed snapshot and all existing delta backups as well, waited for coalescence then tried backup and got this error:
Error: SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_82(, Failed to snapshot VDI [opterr=['MAP_DUPLICATE_KEY', 'VDI', 'sm_config', 'OpaqueRef:2ebd2753-709c-4bf9-afdb-9ce38938b5cf', 'paused']], )After this i tried migrating the VM to another host and got error:

I then noticed in storage > Advance tab this error:
Failed to unpause tapdisk for VDI c6853f48-4b06-4c34-9707-b68f9054e6fc, VMs using this tapdisk have lost access to the corresponding disk(s)I see the disks in XO and in CLI:

UPDATE:
I managed to find the missing VDI "c6853f48-4b06-4c34-9707-b68f9054e6fc", it was the last successfull backup taken i believe, luckily i have snapshots on backup folder aswell on truenas!

Ok i managed to restore all .vhd files from truenas snapshots, but still cannot start the VM, because one of the disks is stuck on dom0:

You need to forget the VDI then rescan the SR and that should do the trick
