      @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.
