Error on attempting delta backup -- how to rectify?

kevdog

Been using XO with delta backups for a while however one of my VMs is now receiving an error and I'm not sure how to rectify. I'll post what I have below. Looks like there might be two errors -- VHD check error and WaitObjectState Error. Not sure how to actually fix any of these errors.

Thanks for help.

It looks like you have the health check feature enabled, and the restored VM failed to start. I would suggest manually restoring the VM from backup and attempting to start it to see what information is given in the console.

DustinB

kevdog Health Check will only work if you have the Guest Drivers installed (https://xenserver.com/downloads for Windows) and running.

Otherwise it'll timeout.

Can you confirm that the drivers are installed and running?

DustinB Didn't know about the health check drivers to be honest. My VM not working is a pfSense VM. I looked at the link posted and didn't see BSD drivers. Looking my XO installation for pfSense I dont even see anything in the GUI regarding healthchecks. Weird. Not sure how this option was even turned on in the first place.

kevdog Look under the backup job's schedule for the Health Check checkbox.

Danp Aww. see that box. Let me look into this problem a bit more. Learning some new things here.
