On a server thats running and backingup fine for over a year suddenly the backup fails since two days with:

Jan 17 13:22:01 node12 /USR/SBIN/CRON[887055]: (root) CMD (vzdump 217 --quiet 1 --mode snapshot --mailto support@xxx.xx --node node12 --compress lzo --storage usbdisk-node12)
Jan 17 13:22:02 node12 /USR/SBIN/CRON[887053]: (CRON) error (grandchild #887055 failed with exit status 9)

Edit: when I run the backup command on the prompt nothing happens.
No error, no backup I just get the prompt back immediatly....?

I've remounted the usbdisk and restarted cron.
I've no idea where to looks else.
Nothing has changed on the machine or software.

I hope anyone has any ideashow to solve it?

Thanks in advance,
Erwin

EDIT; Solved with:

Apparently the there's not always an obvious error message.
