Restore error - detected size difference

[ozgurerdogan]

I checked my disk and there is a small amount of badsector. So I backed up vm to restore to different node. But during restore I got:

INFO: detected size difference for 'vm-disk-ide0.raw' (161061273595 != 161061273600)
INFO: tar: vm-disk-ide0.raw: Cannot write: Broken pipe

ERROR: restore QemuServer backup 'vzdump-qemu-104-2011_02_13-01_23_44.tar' failed - command 'tar xf 'vzdump-qemu-104-2011_02_13-01_23_44.tar' '--to-command=/usr/sbin/qmrestore vzdump-qemu-104-2011_02_13-01_23_44.tar --extract 105'' failed with exit code 2

Is it possible to bypass this error and restore it?

Sorry, ignore my last post. You can try to use 'tar' directly to extract the files. Does that help?

ok Manual extraction was ok. But raw size is different than reported in qemu-server.conf.

This is a database server and size difference might be because of bad sector. Do you think I can trust this raw file. Because I was planing to manually move data inside container to different vm on different node and replace the harddrive.

Nobody can now that - I would not trust. Maybe you can verify the critical data manually (do an sql dump, ...)?
