Hey. Can anyone tell about the procedure of porting the usual linux lxc?
I tried to restore it as a backup by inserting pct.conf there but got an error - "can not determine the backup backup type for backup archive". Also tried to create a template, error - "
Job for lxc@120.service failed. See 'systemctl status lxc@120.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
TASK ERROR: command 'systemctl start lxc @ 120' failed: exit code 1 "
 
please write in more detail what you tried to do and what you expected

what exactly did you try to restore ? our restore function only works with our backups

I created a copy of the regular Linux lxc container, added /etc/vzdump/pct.conf to it and archived it in tar.gz. I moved them to vzdump and tried to deploy it as a backup.

My goal is to move regular lxc containers from another server (just Linux Debian 8) to the proxmox server. Or it is better to convert them into a qemu format.

Sorry for my English.
 
did you name the backup file like this?

vzdump-lxc-100-2017_07_11-11_15_58.tar.gz
