If i create new VM - backup runs normally.
What can I do?
 
Hi.
I don't have enterprise subscription, thus i update my server from no-subscriprion repo.
Code:
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.2-124 (running kernel: 2.6.32-28-pve)
pve-manager: 3.2-2 (running version: 3.2-2/82599a65)
pve-kernel-2.6.32-27-pve: 2.6.32-121
pve-kernel-2.6.32-28-pve: 2.6.32-124

corosync-pve: 1.4.5-1
openais-pve: 1.1.4-3
libqb0: 0.11.1-2
redhat-cluster-pve: 3.2.0-2

pve-libspice-server1: 0.12.4-3
vncterm: 1.1-6
vzctl: 4.0-1pve5

vzquota: 3.1-2
pve-qemu-kvm: 1.7-6
ksm-control-daemon: 1.1-1
glusterfs-client: 3.4.2-1
The problem persists.

UPD.
Reinstall server not help. Old VM do not backup.
And, if i backup VM on local disk - backup ends successfully. This problem only when backup to a mounted storage. The other nodes on the same storage backups normally.

After upgrading to latest version, the problem remains
Code:
 root@R38P-01-VS8:~# pveversion -v   proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 3.2-124 (running kernel: 2.6.32-28-pve)   pve-manager: 3.2-3 (running version: 3.2-3/38bfef76)   pve-kernel-2.6.32-28-pve: 2.6.32-124  lvm2: 2.02.98-pve4   clvm: 2.02.98-pve4   corosync-pve: 1.4.5-1   openais-pve: 1.1.4-3   libqb0: 0.11.1-2   redhat-cluster-pve: 3.2.0-2   resource-agents-pve: 3.9.2-4   fence-agents-pve: 4.0.5-1   pve-cluster: 3.0-12   qemu-server: 3.1-16   pve-firmware: 1.1-2   libpve-common-perl: 3.0-17   libpve-access-control: 3.0-11   libpve-storage-perl: 3.0-19   pve-libspice-server1: 0.12.4-3   vncterm: 1.1-6  vzctl: 4.0-1pve5   vzprocps: 2.0.11-2   vzquota: 3.1-2   pve-qemu-kvm: 1.7-8   ksm-control-daemon: 1.1-1   glusterfs-client: 3.4.2-1
but if I mount a different directory, then the backup is done properly. therefore a problem with connecting to a remote storage. I will understand.
