      Hi,

      I have a VM with 2 disks. I do not want the second disk to be included in the backup. I have added [NOSNAP] [NOBAK] as prefix to the second disk's name.

      Nevertheless, when doing a full backup, the data of this disk is tranfered as well:

      I read some posts in this forum about that but it is still not clear to me.

      • Is the data of the disk transfered, but then deleted from the backup?
      • Did I do anything wrong?
      • Shouldn't it be transfered in the first place?

        Hi,

        • Which XCP-ng version are you using?
        • What kind of backup are you doing?

            So that should work. Can you try just with [NOBAK] first?

              Can confirm [NOSNAP] [NOBAK] works with xen 8.2, xo 3a212.
              Well NOSNAP can't technicaly work, but it don't break anything.
