I have a server where a few KVM VMs are replicated with DRBD. Almost every night when the backup runs, it times out at the same exact operation. A log excerpt is as follows:
The timeout always happens after the "creating archive" part and it's always 3 seconds. It indicates that it's probably a fixed timeout of 3 secs somewhere. Is there a way to modify this particular timeout? I tried changing the others in vzdump.conf, but they didn't help. Running the backup by hand is always successful, BTW.
