When a "Mirror Incremental Backup" type backup is performed, the message below is displayed:

Is this really a bug? Well, nothing happens.

Error message

["821539cc-381a-8dbe-7c5b-7121a168da5b","a97b9ad6-f607-6f63-d918-394d4d3412c2","fd232c67-c6da-d4ad-d815-25e8cbe87019"]

To reproduce

Using Xen Orchestra:

1. A simple backup (full backup) was performed on an NFS 1 server.
2. A "Mirror Incremental Backup" backup was performed on an NFS 2 server.
3. In step 2 the message above was shown.

The vms info is not an error but it indicates the list of VMs that are planned to be backed up during this run.

The issue is that there is no sub-tasks after that and that the backup run still shows as success.

Maybe the issue is that we should add a warning in a VM subtask if there is nothing to transfer.

[julien-f]

Also there should likely be a warning if there is nothing to transfer for the whole backup run.

@cairoapcampos The issue on your side appears to be that you are configuring an Incremental Mirror Backup but your original backups are Full VM backups. Either both should be full or both should be incremental, do not mix them.

@julien-f You are sure. I was making the wrong backups. Do you want to change the system to show a more user-friendly message? My doubt has been resolved. If you wish, you can close this issue.
