    Allow different compression binaries and configuration for backups

    I've found a copy of precompact, and made tests. Tests were done against a KVM Windows XP machine with a single 10 GB (IDE raw) disc. There are 5,5 GB free, but may be sometime in the past disk was almost full, so it was supposed to be full of 'old-deleted' data. So mi interest for...

    Can iSCSI + LVM storage be used as a destination for vzdump backups ?

    Thanks for your interest. Yes, I know that, but the owner of the SAN server says that it can not provide NFS Shares .... ....
