The directory remains empty during the backup, it only contains:

/vzdumptmp17739/etc/vzdump/pct.conf
/vzdumptmp17739/etc/vzdump/pct.fw

Why?

EDIT: Enabling pigz is also ignored in the conf file. (Yes it's installed)

how does your /etc/vzdump.conf look like
also what is the exact command line which you call for the backup?

Code: 
INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 101 --mode snapshot --remove 0 --compress 0 --storage diskTwo --node server3
INFO: filesystem type on dumpdir is 'zfs' -using /var/tmp/vzdumptmp12661 for temporary files

I also tried with --tmpdir switch but the result is the same.

The host disk is Ext4, the container disk is ZFS (Mounted as ZFS in proxmox) and backup disk is ZFS (Mounted as directory).
 
please update your installation, there have been some bugfixes regarding vzdump

also pigz cannot work if you specify "--compress 0" it has to be "--compress gzip"

Everything is up to date - should i run
Code: 
apt-get dist-upgrade
instead of just
Code: 
apt-get upgrade
?
 
The tmpdir is only filled in suspend mode backups, you seem to be using snapshot mode.
