@olivierlambert Historically we have always used FC even on vmware, but I might consider using NFS. Thanks a lot to everyone

Delta backup questions
Hi. First of all, congratulations @vates for the product. I am using XO compiled from source. I'm trying to figure out how vm backup works. I have read the documentation, but I cannot find the information I am looking for. About delta backup:
- During and after the backup, the disk where the virtual machines reside becomes almost full. This is because the disks are duplicated and the copy remains even after the backup is finished. Is this behavior normal? If so, this type of backup is practically unusable.
- If I understand correctly, backups are compressed. Since the storage where I go to save the files is already compressed, I would like to disable xenorchestra compression. is it possible?
- What happens if I select more than one destination storage? Are the backups duplicated or are they spread across the different storage?
Thanks
