Hi, I'm using vzdump and --compress option doesn't work.
INFO: sent 1028935 bytes received 1758 bytes 2061386.00 bytes/sec
INFO: total size is 3232104706 speedup is 3135.86
INFO: final sync finished (0 seconds)
INFO: resume vps
INFO: Resuming...
INFO: vps is online again after 2 seconds
INFO: creating archive '/vz/dump/vzdump-180.dat' (/var/tmp/vzdumptmp25080/180)
INFO: gzip: unrecognized option `--rsyncable'
INFO: Try `gzip --help' for more information.
INFO: file size 0KB
INFO: Finished Backup of VM 180 (00:06:41)
Apparently it looks like gzip is not compiled with proper options or Proxmox vzdump tool is being used with other gzip than I have.
I can see in vzdump:
# by default we set --rsyncable for gzip
$ENV{GZIP} = "--rsyncable" if !$ENV{GZIP};
Can I omit this default or what it really does?
Any clues for this?
Regards.

I don't know what exactly it does since the tool is poorly documented but i know enough that it will work without it just fine.
I used previous versions of vzdump which did not used or needed this flag, i don't think is crucial to the operation of the tool.
