When trying to backup a particular VM I get this error:

Code:

The log file in /var/log/vzdump/qemu-124.log shows the same thing as above.


Code: 
root@chelsea:~# ls -lh /var/lib/vz/images/124/
total 23G
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 33G Aug 19 10:31 vm-124-disk-1.qcow2

Code: 
root@chelsea:~# cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/124.conf 
boot: nc
bootdisk: virtio0
cores: 1
cpu: kvm64
ide2: none,media=cdrom

ostype: l26
sockets: 2
virtio0: local:124/vm-124-disk-1.qcow2,size=32G


The last good backup of this VM happened on 2013-08-17. So the backup did succeed on that date. But not anytime after...
Code: 
root@chelsea:/var/log/vzdump# pveversion 
pve-manager/2.3/7946f1f1


Anyone run into this before/know what is going on?
 
Code: 
root@chelsea:~# qm monitor 124
Entering Qemu Monitor for VM 124 - type 'help' for help

hmm... based on this output is it correct to assume that proxmox thinks the drive is a sata drive?

do you have done a stop/start ? (not reset)
Click to expand...

This is what happens when I try to stop the vm.
Code: 
Executing HA stop for VM 124
Local machine disabling pvevm:124...Could not connect to resource group manager
TASK ERROR: command 'clusvcadm -d pvevm:124' failed: exit code 1
 
Seems you cluster is not correctly working. Try to read the logs in /var/log/syslog and /var/log/cluster/*
 
So I found the problem... though nothing obvious in the logs that pointed to the problem. I had this particular VM setup for HA, without having HA setup correct. (My fault in misunderstanding how HA worked in proxmox.) I removed the VM from HA, activated the changes and was able to stop and start the VM. Though, I would still be curious as to why I was not able to backup the VM anymore, only because I had setup the VM for HA.

Thank you for your support in this dietmar. :)

Cheers,

Phil
