Hello everyone,

for three days now, my PVE host has had some weird issues with backups.
Some containers take over 2 hours instead of only 17 minutes as normally while VM backups cause a backup output like:

Bash:
INFO: trying to get global lock - waiting...
ERROR: can't acquire lock '/var/run/vzdump.lock' - got timeout

For some containers, I can't make a snapshot at all.
The containers that can not be snapshotted possess the same properties as those, that can be snapshotted.

Anyone have an idea how to fix this?
