Hi all,
I am glad to announce version 1.0 of vzdump. vzdump is an utility to make
consistent snapshots of running OpenVZ VEs. It basically creates a tar
archive of the VE private area, which also includes the VE configuration
files.
Vzdump 1.0 is now available for download:
http://www.proxmox.com/cms_proxmox/en/virtualization/openvz/vzdump/
or
http://download.openvz.org/contrib/utils/vzdump/
New Features:
- vzdump --mailto: generate nice text/html mails with
additional status info's
- allow multiple receivers (multiple --mailto options)
- new --exclude option to exclude some VEs
- new --exclude-path option, use 'find' to avoid tar
sockets warnings, try to skip all log files by default
- better log format includes time
An installation Howto is also available:

Upgrade and enjoy!
