[SOLVED] Run any command before than backup?

[Mucip]

Hi,
I have two guest system (one debian and one Win10) in my Proxmox. I mounted 6TB disk to guest Debian.
After than this. Backup time takes very very long time and error message:

can't acquire lock '/var/run/vzdump.lock' - got timeout

VMID	NAME	STATUS	TIME	SIZE	FILENAME
TOTAL​	00:00:00	0KB

Detailed backup logs:

vzdump --quiet 1 --compress zstd --mailto mucip.ilbuga@XX.com --all 1 --mode snapshot --storage yedek --mailnotification failure

Can I run umount 6TB disk command and mount again after than backup?

Or how can I prevent backup 6TB disk with Guest Debian...

How did you mount that disk to the debian VM?

Hi,
Like this:

#qm set 100 --scsi1=/dev/sdb

Okay. If I understand you correctly you don't want that disk to be included in the backup? To do so, you can add the additional parameter of backup=0 to the disk.

The line in the config file (/etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf) should look something like this:

scsi1: /dev/sdb,backup=0

Hi,

It was before:
scsi1: /dev/sdb,size=5860522584K

I changed it like below,
scsi1: /dev/sdb,size=5860522584K,backup=0

I will check it later. Because configuration file is still locked! It keep backing up still I guess?

I will reply when I get result.
