I created a VM and gave it a 500GB drive. The daily backups are only about 12 gigs or so.

When I'm trying to restore this VM, this is happening. Any ideas?

restore vma archive: zstd -q -d -c /mnt/pve/NFS_TrueNAS/dump/vzdump-qemu-103-2021_06_13-00_09_14.vma.zst | vma extract -v -r /var/tmp/vzdumptmp6805.fifo - /var/tmp/vzdumptmp6805

Thanks!
 
We can close this. Instead of trying to restore the VM and write storage to my NFS, I created a local ZFS large enough for the restore and it went through.
