@florent Since both jobs were test jobs that i have been running manually, i do have an unnamed and disabled schedule on both that does look identical, so i unintentionally did have multiple jobs on the same schedule. I have since named the schedule within my test job so to each is unique.
Updating to "f445b" shows improvement:
I was able to replicate from pool A to Pool B, then run a backup job which was incremental.
I then ran the replication job again which was incremental and did not create a new VM!
Unfortunately though after this i ran the backup job again which resulted in a full backup from the replica rather than a delta, not sure why. The snapshot from the first backup job run was also not removed, leaving 2 snapshots behind, one from each backup run.

I then tried the process again. Ran the CR job, which was a delta (this part seemed fixed!) then ran the backup job after, same behavior, a full ran instead of a delta and the previous backup snapshot was left behind leaving the VM looking like:

So it seems one problem solved but another remains.
