I like to qmrestore the vzdump-qemu-113-2014_04_12-09_08_11.vma.gz created on another proxmox-server and get this error:


Code:

This is also not possible with the gui:

I realy need help ????
 
Still get the error on a fresh installed HP ML350 G6:

I did a reinstall of the hp ml350 g6, qmrestore is working with the "old" proxmox 3.1, the pveversion is:


Code:

Should I update to the latest version of proxmox 3.2 ?
 
I did the update/upgrade to the latest version of proxmox and the error is back again...

Ok, restore work here without any problem. So this seems to be related to your storage mounted at /var/lib/vz/.

Are you able to create images manually? What is the output of:

# time qemu-img create -o 'preallocation=metadata' -f qcow2 /var/lib/vz/images/test-image.qcow2 1048576000K
 
Code:
real    0m11.704s
user    0m1.798s
sys     0m0.630s


/dev/mapper/pve-data on /var/lib/vz type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=0,data=ordered)
 
# HP ML350 G6 (Smart Array P410i RaidController)
It was working with proxmox 3.1 at the same hardware... after the update to 3.2 the error comes back again.


# Fujitsu TX100 S3 (Adaptec RaidController)
I tried to restore the same file on my 2nd Server and it works on it, what can/should I do ?


Any Suggestions ?
 
what is the difference btw win7-image qmrestore (vzdump-qemu-101-2014_04_12-22_21_53.vma.gz) and linux-image qmrestore (vzdump-qemu-100-2014_04_14-17_12_37.vma.gz).

win7-image works the linux-image do not work ??????
 
I can not figure out what the problem is, some images can be restored on the old hp server and some not.

on my fujitsu server I can restore these files, so what is the problem, the software (proxmox 3.2) is the same...
 
Why is the qmrestore working with this image on proxmox 3.1 and not with 3.2 ?

I am able to restore it on another server with proxmox 3.2, how can I debug the error ?
 
Code:
root@proxmox2:~# pveperf

I was able to qmrestore an image of the same linux distri (sme8) but with 500GB hdd instead of befor 1TB.
