This is actually the expected behaviour of dirvish. A failed image should not be readable, to avoid unknowingly accessing a failed backup while attempting to restore something. A monitoring tool can check whether the image directory is readable or not to determine its success... I'm leaving this bug report open as this information should be in the man page; once the man page is corrected I will close this bug. Paul
