I had a failed backup happen Monday where I had to restart the NFS that froze
Tuesday 1 vm worked and the other vm failed here is the out put it looks like its still locked.
104: Jul 11 02:13:47 INFO: Starting Backup of VM 104 (qemu)
104: Jul 11 02:13:47 INFO: status = running
104: Jul 11 02:13:48 INFO: VM is locked (backup)
104: Jul 11 02:13:48 ERROR: Backup of VM 104 failed - command 'qm set 104 --lock backup' failed: exit code 255

My question is can I just do "qm unlock 104" so it will be able to back up tonight and will it affect the VM while its running?

You need to make sure that the previous backup job does not run anymore. Then you can unlock (it will not affect the VM while its running).
 
Looks like it stopped as near as I can tell here a screenshot. Do I need to execute a command to check like
"# egrep '^lock: backup$' /etc/qemu-server/104.conf;"

Yes, seems to be stopped. Please can you post the backup log - I wonder what error left the VM in locked state.
 
looks like my NAS became unresponsive. I clicked on the stop to stop the backup and then I had to restart the NAS itself
