I am getting the following error doing vzdump.  The versions of vzdump and opennode are listed below as well.

Hm, something new - could you please try running "vzctl --skiplock chkpnt 1001 --suspend" directly to get more output? vzdump tends to conceal parts of the output, which could include more insight.

Well that was weird, I did a second vzdump when I composed this post and it finished ok.  Maybe it was just a glitch so I won't worry about it until it happens a second time.  vzdump has caused me some issues in the past but this error was new so let's hope it was a one time thing.

Well, the lines

are suspicious. Perhaps that was an accident ctrl-c or something like that.
