Hello Stefan, Thanks for your reply. Fortunately I didn’t have the problem again and it’s not clear how it can be consistently reproduced. Daily backups are running as usual at the moment.
If there is anything I can do from my side or if you have any ideas to try to reproduce it let me know. Thanks.

The snapshot succeeded then the backup of the VM disk had place and also succeeded but the commit to the original disk after the backup seem to have failed. The command I use in the script to take the snapshot is: virsh snapshot-create-as --domain $VM backup-job.qcow2 --disk-only --atomic --quiesce --no-metadata And then to commit back is: virsh blockcommit $VM $TARGETDISK --base $DISKFILE --top $SNAPFILE --active --pivot In the qemu log for the guest I found the following while the commit back was having place: Assertion failed: QLIST_EMPTY(&bs->tracked_requests) (/home/buildozer/aports/main/qemu/src/qemu-2.10.1/block/mirror.c: mirror_run: 884) I'm running qemu 2.10.1 with libvirt 3.9.0 and kernel 4.9.65 on Alpine Linux 3.7.
