So, did you "change" the upstream feature when implementing your own?

Thanks for the tips. I already read the Qemu documentation and I'm able to
make a successful full + incr backup using a "stock" Qemu with my
procedure. So I assume the procedure is fine.
Then I decided to ask a question here as it is not working with Proxmox, so
I suspect that something changed between upstream and Proxmox distributions.
I'm not a Proxmox developer, so finding what is not working on Qemu
hypervisor is hard.

Back to my main question: Do you have any idea why the job fell into a
paused state and how I should proceed?
