Comment 0 for bug 1808552

Restore not working on windows 10 python 2.7 for 2 reasons:

1. Because of this commit https://github.com/openstack/freezer/commit/b08c785b78484902217b418c872068389f6aeac9

Looks for '/bin/bash' executable in freezer\engine\tar\tar.py, but it doesn't exist in Windows. (fixable by editing code)

2. Multiprocessing module seems to have problems pickling/unpickling.

Command:

freezer-agent --action restore --mode fs --restore-abs-path C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\freezer_dir --container freezer_win --backup-name test_win --log-file C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\freezer.log

Result:

Critical Error: Can't pickle <type 'thread.lock'>: it's not found as thread.lock
