The errno 32 on write error has to do with gzip if memory serves. When you get that error it’s typically because either your disc is full or you’re timing out the disc or CPU usage the host has in place.

First thing I would do is check to see what limits you have on the Virtual Server you’re trying to back up. Make sure that it has plenty of space allocated to it so that you’re not filling the disc up before the backup can finish.

Then I would check your execution time settings. How long is this backup taking when it crashes? Check to make sure your execution time limit is greater than the amount of time you run into when the crash occurs.
