        @florent Thanks for taking a look, much appreciated!
        @siemsenit Glad to help! I can't claim credit though, @marcoi pointed out the mention of NBD in the logs 👍

            you're right, preferNbd default value is not the same on the front and the back, we'll fix it

            Most of the backup issue are solved by either removing the snapshot, or having it fa enough so thaht the next backup will be a base one, with all the data

            I am still not reproducing the nackup stuck issue after this commit https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/commit/3c8efb4dc3e1cb3955521063047227849cfb6ed3

              @RobWhalley I think in the beginning i had that option enabled in my backup jobs, but found it was a hassle to move VMs between hosts with it on so i turned it off for all backups. Might be why my jobs worked because i had already done that switch in the past.

                That worked for me as well.

                I created a new XenOrchestra VM with commit 3c543.

                Enabling and disabling NBD on the backup job did the trick.

                Thank you and everyone else for your efforts and digging into the matter.

                Regards
                Marc

                    We are still working on it to better understand why it fixes and improve the situation

                      found it , there was not one, but 2 bugs
                      albeit small they were putting the xo backup in a incorrect state
                      the fix is here, and will be merged as soon as possible and then released as a patch for xoa users
