Seeing frequent backup failures with my Proxmox instance using PBS when using snapshot backup mode. Failures are related to the system being unable to cleanup the snapshot, reporting the following:

Code:
INFO: cleanup temporary 'vzdump' snapshot
snapshot 'vzdump' was not (fully) removed - zfs error: cannot destroy snapshot rpool/data/subvol-113-disk-0@vzdump: dataset is busy

Upon the next run, the backup will fail on that container:

Code:
ERROR: Backup of VM 113 failed - CT is locked (snapshot-delete)

Said container will remain locked until I manually run pct unlock 113. I cannot manually delete said snapshot with zfs destroy rpool/data/subvol-113-disk-0@vzdump until I reboot the system.

Any advice on what is going on?
