@archw Ignore that entire post...user error. I have two networks that are spelled very close to the same thing and I was using the wrong one.

Can you write exactly what you would expect to be written as a "pre written" text?

@archw Scratch that one.....I should have googled first. I saw that someone suggested deleting the cache.json.gz file. I did and ran it again and it worked.

@Bambos try restarting your hosts.

Coalesce isn't instant, and yes, as soon you remove a snapshot, there's some work to do from the storage perspective

@olivierlambert Sorry to resurrect an old subject, but I just started to have this issue myself. I have a VM running nut with a VUSB connected to my UPS. I snapshot weekly, so the odds of a snapshot occurring during a power outage are quite low, so I have no problem with disconnecting/reconnecting in order to take a snapshot. It's a small price to pay to be able to automate the snapshot process.

@archw said in Backup fails with "all targets have failed, step: writer.beforeBackup()": @florent Where would I find that log? I assume its in /var/log but which file? For a xoa it's in journalctl -u xo-server from source, it depends how you did setup XO

If this specific VM is causing issue, you can fallback on Clonezilla or something similar
