I can only +1 to the issue, as regular members are able to issue a backup create request which will apparently fail on creation (I'd expect cinder API to fail on request if no backup services are registered though) and block further volume operations due to this existing failed backup, which should not have been created at the first place.

I don't know how users were able to create these backups at one point, probably during a test of setting up this service before deleting it.
But now:  fail_reason           | Service not found for creating backup. 

How can I proceed to delete this volume backups ? I tried to restart the service and delete backups. No success.

Thanks for your help
