Today I experienced that the vzdump process hanged. I used the backup stop option. Had to kill the vzdump process, unlock and start the virtual machine to get everything up in the morning. Is it possible to have a timeout option which can terminate the backup if it's not completed after x hours?
 
yes, a better monitoring would be nice.
 
Yes, that was the problem. I have solved it now. But should the vzdump command hang when it runs out of disk space? I would be better if it reported "out of diskspace" and the abort the backupprocess?
