1. what do you mean by snapshot? LVM snapshot or what? rsync doesn't do any real(!) snapshots.
2. Do I understand correctly that you run this command from inside VE to backup its data *to* remote server?

1. Can you shed some light on this? rsync requires 2 nodes. So I can't understand what "on the one vz it works, the other crashes" mean.
Do you mean that source node or destination (where backups are stored) crashes?
2. What do you mean by crashes?
Does your host system continues to work?
Can you ssh to the host?
Do you see some kernel messages on the screen?
3. is it reproducable? if yes, can you demonstrate it with exact commands/details and maybe provide us login to resolve it?
4. what are kernel versions on source and destination nodes (uname -a)? have you taken kernels from binary RPMs or rebuilt kernel yourself? what kernel configs have you used?

Ok, this makes me believe that host system continues to work, right?
But VE networking somehow stops responding?
Does ping ve-ip-addr works?
Do you mean "restart vz" == "/etc/init.d/vz restart"? If yes, I guess 'vzctl restart VEID' helps as well?

P.S. I renamed the title of your post, since it was too emotional, with too incomplete information.
