Hi all,

A cool recent (not announced?) feature seems to fail whith pigz compression tool (pigz: 8 in /etc/vzdump.conf).

If you try to "show configuration" on a backup file, an error occurs with the following message :
"Failed to extract config from VMA archive: pigz: write error code 32 (500)".

With lzo, it's working like expected.

I can't say about genuine gzip because we don't use it anymore.

Thanks,

Christophe.
 
works as expected here.. for extracting the configuration, we don't even use pigz/gzip - but zcat?
 
Oops, I understand now : it's because I'm using a wrapper to redirect gzip to pigz...
Restoring original gzip works as expected.

Christophe.
