Hi,

while trying a restore on an updated 3.2 system I get this error message: Parameter verification failed (400) storage: invalid format - storage ID " contains illegal characters.
The backups are on a NFS export and the storage is on an iSCSI LUN. The backup filename is vzdump-qemu-100-2014_07_05-04_00_03.vma.lzo (probably nothing wrong there). The harddrive ID is storagecluster:0.0.15.scsi-23364306537636562 .
Why am I getting this message, and more important: how to avoid it?

Thx!

Answering my own question for the rest of the world: I was using iSCSI LUNs directly. It's better not to do that and have LVM logical volumes on the LUNs. Even better is to throw multipathing in the mix.
