Hello,
I have a backup of a vm that in the log finished OK
2025-01-05 08:36:48 INFO: 100% (200.0 GiB of 200.0 GiB) in 1d 12h 8m 58s, read: 192.8 MiB/s, write: 2.2 MiB/s 2025-01-05 08:36:48 INFO: backup is sparse: 35.85 GiB (17%) total zero data 2025-01-05 08:36:48 INFO: transferred 200.00 GiB in 130138 seconds (1.6 MiB/s) 2025-01-05 08:36:48 INFO: stopping kvm after backup task 2025-01-05 08:36:54 INFO: archive file size: 86.14GB 2025-01-05 08:36:54 INFO: adding notes to backup 2025-01-05 08:36:54 INFO: Finished Backup of VM 101 (36:09:06)

but when trying to restore I get this error :
Could not extract backed up config: Failed to extract config from VMA archive: zstd: /mnt/nv0/dump/vzdump-qemu-101-2025_01_03-20_27_48.vma.zst: unsupported format Skipping early checks!restore vma archive: zstd -q -d -c /mnt/nv0/dump/vzdump-qemu-101-2025_01_03-20_27_48.vma.zst | vma extract -v -r /var/tmp/vzdumptmp2048291.fifo - /var/tmp/vzdumptmp2048291error before or during data restore, some or all disks were not completely restored.

is there any way I can still use this backup?
