Troubleshooting
If you encounter a following error during backup job:
Fatal error: proxmox: Error closing backend. Err=Unknown error during program execvp
You should check the Proxmox Task log for the following error:
TASK ERROR: could not get storage information for 'local':
can't use storage 'local' for backups - wrong content type
Then your ’local’ Proxmox storage resource is missing the required
’backup’ content type. This kind of configuration is expected by
vzdump Proxmox command to save a backup task log and guest vm
configuration. As a remedy you can add a missing ’backup’ content type
to the ’local’ Proxmox storage resource or configure your backup job to
use a different Proxmox storage resource for that. In the latter case
you should add a vzdump_storage=... parameter to your configuration.
