Hi all,

 

my first entry here :-)

I use the Community Edition of VBR for backing up two proxmox-vms. Installation was no problem and worker was configured. If I backup linux-vms there is no problem. But if I try to backup two windows server 2022 vms (image for hpe proliant server) i get the error: Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx). If i check the guid in windows with power shell the guid seems to be good. I tried serveral things but it is not possible to do a backup.

Anybody a solution or the same problem?

There are many users complaining about that problem in the proxmox forum.

Hi Jonathan,

many thanks for the link. But unfortunately no success. In the posts there was said, that they got no UUID checking via powershell. I got the UUID. Also the workaround by inserting the args in the config-files of the VM don’t work. I cloned one VM and testet it but the error still exists. Going back to qemu 8.0 was also not the solution :-(
