hi,
I run a snapshot backup at night of several KVMs. It seems to be hit and miss of when it runs and when it does not. In the background I can see the process running a vmtar etc of which I don't know why its doing this as I have told it not to compress files.
If I look in the log for the particular VM that the backup has failed on -
Sep 15 02:00:01 INFO: Starting Backup of VM 101 (qemu)

the terminate process is me killing the process off as its just hung. It then proceeds to carry on with the rest of the other KVMs its supposed to backup. I can access the NFS backup storage no problem and the physical server has over 1TB of free space. The physical box itself is a brand new Dell server with 16GB RAM, SATA disks in hardware RAID1.
Any ideas as to why this might be happening?
thanks
