      Hi,

      I see that changes of backup engine causing a lot of new errors.

      1. There are many "Error: EEXIST: file already exists" which never happened in the past. Restart of the same backup usually just works.
      2. Due to 1 I've added option "retry" to each backup and now even if error occurs second attempt is successful but overall status of backup tasks is set to failed.

      This is how it looks like.

      This backup job is an old one which running at my environment for months if not years.
      Backups are stored on NAS via NFS.

      Other VMs processed in this job are successfully processed.
