      Hello ,

      XOA create/manage and proceed backup jobs and proxies are scaling unit for local or remote, its perfect but ;

      Backup Proxy is resource and mount NFS on it (for backup) its virtual and if process is like below (i got it from on of conversation )
      -->When you do a backup the snapshot needs to be downloaded by Xen orchestra, for that this snapshot is first exposed by your dom0 through an http link, that's what's VDI attached to the control domain means. They are snapshot attached to your dom0 VM to be exposed through http.

      Host more quickly could send backup to NFS point i guess , isn't it ? I mean data move can sit on host part and without need of Dom0 and Proxy , Xen-ng directly write to NFS store , isn't it ?
      From your XO Documentation there is an warning , it could also solve this problem too, isn't it ?
      DANGER
      High concurrency could impact your dom0 and network performances.

      Regards
      VM

        Hi,

        You can't tell XCP-ng to push a VM disk to a backup repository, it doesn't work that way.
