Hey folks,
I've read a number of other threads which have been helpful in better understanding LXC backups, but none that provided an answer for my problem.

I have a rather critical LXC that, for the life of me, I cannot backup. It seems to always fail with the initial rsync command:

rsync --stats -h -X -A --numeric-ids -aH --delete --no-whole-file --sparse --one-file-system --relative --progress '--exclude=/tmp/?*' '--exclude=/var/tmp/?*' '--exclude=/var/run/?*.pid' /proc/1181332/root//./ /var/tmp/vzdumptmp2536780_103


Code:
Number of files: 816,994 (reg: 683,009, dir: 113,320, link: 12,401, dev: 2, special: 8,262)
Number of created files: 808,835 (reg: 678,606, dir: 109,571, link: 12,394, dev: 2, special: 8,262)
Number of deleted files: 0
Number of regular files transferred: 678,503
Total file size: 65.92G bytes
Total transferred file size: 65.16G bytes
Literal data: 65.16G bytes
Matched data: 0 bytes
File list size: 29.51M
File list generation time: 0.001 seconds
File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds
Total bytes sent: 65.23G
Total bytes received: 13.63M

sent 65.23G bytes  received 13.63M bytes  23.36M bytes/sec
total size is 65.92G  speedup is 1.01
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1338) [sender=3.2.7]


If I grep the output of the rsync command for warning or error, all I find is filenames with those words, no actual errors.

Code:
╰─○ cat /etc/pve/lxc/103.conf

Anyone have any tips or ideas?
