qmrestore problem

[Marek Panek]

Hi,

I've installed proxmox 2.0 and wanted to move few VMs from 1.9 to new environment.

What is the reason of this error?

vzdump/qmrestore is not implemented for 2.0, so you cant use it currently.

Hi,

I thought it was not implemented via web interface, but available through CLI, but it is not the case :

# which vzdump
/usr/sbin/vzdump

# vzdump --snapshot --storage lx-ape2 --maxfiles 1 101
Undefined subroutine &PVE::Storage::load_config called at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/VZDump.pm line 173.

I think this is something that really is missing in PVE 2.0 (at least CLI).

yes, backup restore is very important and that exactly where we are working on the moment.

Good to know!
This means I have to work with tar ...

Yes, and build your own snapshot first (otherwise your VM will change during your backup...)

How much longer for backups
