      @ronivay, I resolved my problem with orchestra which did not want to make backup with NFS. Orchestra wrote errors like: Command failed with exit code 1: mount -o -t nfs 192.168.11.53:/backups/xo /run/xo-server/mounts/0e5e9511-8912-48d4-96ad-532979533332 mount: only root can use "--options" option In general, orchestra tried to use mount option "--options" but mount command rejected this option. When I mount my NFS-shares manually everything was ok - mount works, read-write too, umount also. I did simplest process. I removed at all "--options" from mount command. (As far as I understand, *BSD mount will not work without this option but my Ubuntu works). Background: xcp-ng server (centos 8.2) as NFS server ubuntu server 16.04 where orchestra is going to be placed Orchestra installed 10 days ago from sources according to https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/installation.html#from-the-sources I complete followed document before chapter "Installing dependencies". I made yarn Then, before "yarn build", I manually edited file: /opt/xen-orchestra/@xen-orchestra/fs/src/_mount.js at string 68 I replaced await this.#execa('mount', ['-o', options, '-t', type, device, realPath], { with await this.#execa('mount', ['-t', type, device, realPath], { I then proceeded to follow the instructions: yarn build a so on... Now "patched" orchestra fine makes any kind of backup with NFS. At least, I solved this problem. Yet another question appeared as backup works What kind of Backup should I use to make full copy which enough for restoring (Heaven forbid)? I tried simply "Backup". It SUCCESSFULLY (!) created several files with 56 kbytes (no giga, no mega but kilo). I suppose it abnormal. My VM has got 20 Gb of disk space and about one half is already used (ubuntu server, postgres etc). As far as I understand (https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/7034/backup-with-local-usb-hdd-attached-sr_operation_not_supported/5?_=1688120707451) my version of xcp-ng (8.2.1) does not support "Snapshots" with local disks. Now I copy imagine of my VM with cron as temporary option but may be there is some more correct backup option?
