[pve-devel] [PATCH v2 guest-common 2/3] replication: find common base: improve error when no common base snapshot exists

[Fiona Ebner]

Suggest an alternative solution by removing the problematic volumes
from the replication target rather than the whole job.

This is helpful if there are multiple replicated volumes to avoid the
need to fully re-sync all volumes in many cases.
