Lately I encountered backup failed on KVM vm.
Here are the error received from node itself.

Not sure whether this related to this post https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/backup-and-migration-imposible-proxmox-4.25819/ as well?
 
I have the same problem than that 100:
Feb 13 01:00:19 ERROR: VM 100 qmp command 'guest-fsfreeze-freeze' failed - got timeout
100: Feb 13 01:00:30 ERROR: VM 100 qmp command 'guest-fsfreeze-thaw' failed - got timeout

everything is up to date and it's on a debian 8.2

but the backup seems to be working nevertheless
