Based on the error message the exported VDI may be corrupted.

Have you tried another of the 6 deltas?

What version of XO? There's a bug dealing with delta backups that was recently fixed in XO 5.3.

Well upgrading at this point won't "fix" your existing backups. But it would certainly help in the future. . .

As for the current situation, any luck with the other backups you have?

Not sure how or what ....... but just loaded up the XenCenter on laptop at home and my SnipeV3 VM is there ??? not sure which backup worked but i'm back.

OK missing about 20 days worth of assets but at least most are there.

Job for tomorrow sort my backup and get latest version of Xen Orchestra install. Also make a Backup review and test plan.

Yep, unless you've restored from it, you don't really have a backup.

A really nice thing about XO is you can import and not power on.

So you can remove the NIC and then power on. If it works, you know you're in good shape.
