Hello to everyone,
During backup, I get the following error for one VM continuously.

"INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 102 --remove 0 --mode snapshot
ERROR: Backup of VM 102 failed - only 10 backup (s) allowed - please consider to remove old backup files.
INFO: Backup job finished with errors
TASK ERROR: job errors"

I've shared the picture of the VM device. Apparently the device is active and working. I can also access the applications and the server on it.

The error message is quite elaborate: only 10 backup (s) allowed - please consider to remove old backup files.

Or increase the number of allowed backups.

Did you try to read the human readable error message? Everything is there, nothing more to explain to solve the problem...
