SOLVED: Re: [Users] How to kill dead container (init is dead)

[Pongracz Istvan]

Hi,

Andrey helped me a lot about this issue and it seems, it was a human
error:
I cancelled a backup process and this container left in suspended state.

I used the vzdump script to make backups and I cancelled it while it
started to create an rsync.

So, be careful :)

Cheers, 
IStván
