Hello. I am using proxmox 3.2. Currently I am using manual snapshot backups for my KVM guests. All my guests are KVM on pve LVM volume. I am using CIFS share mounted to /mnt/backup via fstab. Today my backup server was overloaded and there were some connection problems. I was expecting backup failure, but backup was still running (standing on some percentage) BUT one of my guest stopped working well. It was web server guest and some virtualhosts were not working. After some research I found some file system exceptions inside this guest (in dmesg). No issues with proxmox host in dmesg so probably not hardware issue. This problem was solved by manually stopping running snapshot backup. After that everything works well.
Is this issue related to "out of order" snapshot backup in Proxmox? Should I use NFS instead of CIFS?
