I did not noticed this before upgrading to 6.2 but it appears if you backup a VM that is in "suspend" state it will be accessible again instantly as soon as the backup process begins and does not return to the suspended state. As there is no option to avoid backing up suspended VMs if you have an automated backup (other than manually selecting) what is the easy fix to this?
VMs that are suspended restore access if automatically backed up

Hi,
could you post the output of
and the VM is not affected by the backup process and is still suspended.
could you post the output of
pveversion -v and a configuration file for a suspended VM (in /etc/pve/qemu-server/)? For me, trying to back up a suspended VM results in:
Code:
ERROR: Backup of VM 149 failed - VM is locked (suspended)
'paused' VMs get resumed on backup - filed https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2788 for easier tracking - feel free to subscribe to get notified about future updates. also file #2789 to implement backup of hibernated/suspended VMs
