<div dir="ltr">Greetings,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've been running some test containers on OVZ7 beta, and,
while I realize not all functionality is in place yet, they
have been so dependable that I'm starting to depend on them. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, understandably, I was looking at backups, and my first
tries with vzctl snapshot failed. I don't want to spend a lot
of time troubleshooting something that's not yet known to be
working, but in case it is, has anyone else had better luck?</div>

<div>Here is the result of my attempt to make a backup:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>[root@hachi vz]# vzctl snapshot 1001</div>
<div>Creating snapshot {57c8aa0d-1c04-4469-9d1e-c95fab04bd01}</div>
<div>Storing /local/vz/private/1001/Snapshots.xml.tmp</div>
<div>Setting up checkpoint...</div>
<div>Failed to checkpoint the Container</div>
<div>All dump files and logs were saved to
/local/vz/private/1001/dump/{57c8aa0d-1c04-4469-9d1e-c95fab04bd01}.fail</div>
<div>Checkpointing failed</div>
<div>Failed to create snapshot</div>
<div>[root@hachi vz]# </div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The last few lines of the dump log contain these clues:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>(00.570576) Error (proc_parse.c:404): Can't handle
non-regular mapping on 8366's map 7f2164d63000</div>

</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There is no pid 8366 in the CT but on the host that pid
corresponds to the mysql instance running in the container
that I'm trying to snapshot: </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>[root@hachi vz]# ps -ef|grep 8366</div>
<div>27 8366 7098 0 14:03 ? 00:00:00

--pid-file=/var/run/mariadb/mariadb.pid
--socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, is this something that ought to work?</div>

Hi Joe,<br>

You might want to try writing to criu list with this question, they
might have a clue.<br>
