vzrestore

[bread-baker]

if you do use this temporary fix, then before doing a pve software upgrade, make /etc/vz/conf a regular directory and not a symlink, else the pve upgrade may fail.

mv /etc/vz/conf /etc/vz/conf-
ln -s /etc/pve/local/openvz  /etc/vz/conf

then vzrestore as normal

vzrestore vzdump-openvz-525-2011_09_24-23_33_30.tar 3525
INFO: restore openvz backup 'vzdump-openvz-525-2011_09_24-23_33_30.tar' using ID 3525

vzctl start 3525
Starting container ...
Container is mounted
Adding IP address(es): 10.100.100.253

Container start in progress...

vzctl  enter 3525
entered into CT 3525

the above worked for 4 squeeze vz's

is there was a .mount file mv it ot the container will not start. that is an issue to be fixed.
then start the container.

I will fix that next week. I guess I will also create that link automatically.

without the link the vzrestore dont work right. thanks bread-baker for the workaround.
i also get this error :

INFO: extracting archive 'vzdump-openvz-900107-2011_10_05-13_50_54.tar'
tar: write error
INFO: Total bytes read: 1088296960 (1.1GiB, 71MiB/s)

i don't why - but it works (on the first test).

when i try to move ve-pve.auto.conf-sample to new folder i get this.

root@xxx:/etc/vz/conf-# mv ve-pve.auto.conf-sample ../conf/
mv: failed to preserve ownership for `../conf/ve-pve.auto.conf-sample': Function not implemented
mv: preserving permissions for `../conf/ve-pve.auto.conf-sample': Function not implemented

it works - but the error message is strage. should i wrote tickets for that stuff?

btw. great work!

no, thats a known bug. (we did not even start porting vzdump to 2.0)

vzrestore vzdump-openvz-102-2011_10_05-16_23_22.tar

needs a vmid at the end . like

vzrestore vzdump-openvz-102-2011_10_05-16_23_22.tar 1234


I seem to remember that it used to be a vmid was not needed.

So when you OpenVZ support

 

[bread-baker]

no sorrys are ever needed.

 

[djsami]

Proxmox VE 2.0 openvz support ? centos debian .......

 

[dietmar]

Proxmox VE 2.0 openvz support ? centos debian .......

What is the question? We already support OpenVZ.

 

[bread-baker]

the question was how to do a vzrestore. he had left the vmid out.
