vzdump behaviour

[vince_122]

Hi there,

First of all, i wanna thanks all the engineering team to release and support this software !!!

I have a question concerning the behaviour of vzdump with the crontab :
I created a task (in WebUI) to snapshot every CT on every Cluster Node, here is the resulted command line :

vzdump --quiet 1 --mode snapshot --compress lzo --all 1 --storage Saves

But this comand line is in the file /etc/cron.d/vzdump on every node of my cluster !

So my question is :
Does the job is executed at the same time on every node ? Or each node is waiting for the other to finish ?

Thanks for answers,
Vince.

Yes. If you do not want that, you can create different jobs for each node (restrict tasks to specific nodes).
