[PVE-User] vzdump bug with different than C (fr_FR at euro in my case) locales

[Laurent CARON]

Hi,

While backing up VMs, I see that the backups are always done using
suspend instead of snapshots:

# vzdump --mode snapshot --mailto admin-proxmox at lncsa.fr --all 1 --node proxmox-vty-001 --maxfiles 2 --storage backups_tmm
INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump --mailto admin-proxmox at lncsa.fr --mode snapshot --maxfiles 2 --storage backups_tmm --node proxmox-vty-001 --all 1

When specifying LC_ALL=C I don't experience this behavior (LANG=C is not enough)

# LC_ALL=C vzdump --mode snapshot --mailto admin-proxmox at lncsa.fr --all 1 --node proxmox-vty-001 --maxfiles 2 --storage backups_tmm
