During a scheduled backup the backup succeeds to backup all of the virtual machines but it causes one virtual machine to crash. This virtual machine is an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server, the data size for this vm which gets backup amounts to 132 GB. I could not even stop or shutdown the vm through the proxmox web gui. I am using the most current version of Proxmox VE 2. The backups are stored on one 1.8 TB, 7200 rpm SATA HD, on the Proxmox host. It took an hour in a half to backup all of the VMs, the backup totaled size was 144 GB. Is it because I am using a slow HD to store my backups?
Here is a screen shot when I logged in via console.
