Creating a snapshot is not possible right now because the system is in freeze state

Installation Home Assistant OS

Hello all

Just tried to do a snapshot, I am getting following error message:

Creating a snapshot is not possible right now because the system is in freeze state.

I also noticed this in the log:

21-02-18 12:40:49 WARNING (MainThread) [supervisor.jobs] 'SnapshotManager.do_snapshot_full' blocked from execution, system is not running - CoreState.FREEZE
I am currently on:
Core: core-20212.2.3
Supervisor: supervisor-2021.02.9
OS: 5.11

I have restarted Core and Supervisor but no joy.

Please help
Thank you

Same here,
Creating a snapshot is not possible right now because the system is in freeze state.

core-2021.2.3
supervisor-2021.02.11

I started a create snapshot several hours ago, unclear from supervisor log if it is still running but snapshot has not been created?

I have the same issue. “Creating a snapshot is not possible right now because the system is in freeze state.”

Bump!

No answers at all.

To work around, I am using Auto Backup feature from HACS. That seems to create the snapshots.

What is the difference, to do it manually and through Auto Backup?

9

The same.

Has anyone checked the integrity of the auto snapshot?

I’ve also had this problem. Attempting to create a snapshot freezes the Supervisor.

EDIT: After some experimenting, it seems the problem is including the Media folder in the Snapshot. At least on my system, this freezes the Supervisor and the Snapshot is never created.

Same here. Unchecking Media doesn’t fix this issue for me.

Im still getting this problem every time I update to 2021.03.
I get Backup errors

is there a fix or work around for this?

Cheers

The latest Core update fixed it for me… 2021.3.1

14

Not for me. The update didn’t fix my issue. How big is your database?

I have only been on HA for less than a year and only about 20-30 devices/sensors so pretty small I would guess.

16

Same thing here on 2021.3.1. The samba backups seem to run fine. Backing up manually gets me the freeze error.

17

I restored back to core 2021.2.3. Snapshot working again.

18

Same issue here on an rpi4 4GB, wasn’t happening before.

I’ve the same issue. In addition, continous reboots of HA. Stay on newest 2021.3.1.
How can I restore a backup if supervisor is not running? I’ve no chance to do a restore sitting in front of Supervisor an try it somtimes but no luck.

Same issue here, started with 2021.3.
Could not create snapshot at upgrade.
And when try to run manually, similar issue reported.

Usually nothing important is the logs, but as now try to do manually,
this now in Core log in red:
(and I can reach my HA cloud from my phone ‘outside’)
