Hi.
When I try to backup an OpenVZ virtual machine I get these errors:

This virtual machine is stored on a NFS storage and I'm trying to backup it saving the dump on another NFS storage.
If I try to dump to the local storage, I don't get any error and dump works.

Could you help me please?

Thank you very much for your help!
Bye
