Hi all,
I have 2 proxmox 3.0 servers. On the first one I have made a live backup of a big qemu VM (700 Go) and copied the .vma.lzo resulting file on the second server under /var/lib/vz/dump (using a usb disk between the 2 servers).
Now on the second server, I can't restore :

root@atlas:/var/lib/vz/dump# qmrestore /var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-qemu-100-2014_10_08-16_04_52.vma.lzo 113
can't find archive file '/var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-qemu-100-2014_10_08-16_04_52.vma.lzo'

root@atlas:/var/lib/vz/dump# cat vzdump-qemu-100-2014_10_08-16_04_52.vma.lzo | qmrestore - 113
restore vma archive: vma extract -v -r /var/tmp/vzdumptmp142819.fifo - /var/tmp/vzdumptmp142819
command 'vma extract -v -r /var/tmp/vzdumptmp142819.fifo - /var/tmp/vzdumptmp142819' failed: got timeout

And I don't see the file in the GUI (I hoped to see it under the local storage).

What do I miss?

Thanks

Looks like the file does not exist.
 
Looks like the file does not exist.

But it's here :
root@atlas:/var/lib/vz/dump# ls -lh
total 186G
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 175G Oct 9 13:58 vzdump-qemu-100-2014_10_08-16_04_52.vma.lzo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5.8K Oct 9 14:33 vzdump-qemu-101-2014_10_09-14_26_31.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10G Oct 9 14:33 vzdump-qemu-101-2014_10_09-14_26_31.vma.lzo
 
Ok, always the same problem and I can't see any old backups in the web GUI. After googling I see this problem may be caused by upgrading the proxmox server, which I have done a couple of days ago, but I don't reboot the server because I can't stop some VMs. Is it then possible, and how, to restart the services without rebooting?
Thanks
 
Ok, an apt-get dist-upgrade solve these problems.
Thanks to all
