Hi,
For the last couple of months I am experiencing this issue where my /tmp/backup directory keeps being deleted which prevents my Backup Job from successfully completing.
I am recreating it manually but then it gets deleted over and over again.

Any clue why it is happening and how to fix it?

My PVE version is 7.4-17
Thanks!

Hi,
is your tmp folder mounted as a tmpfs? Check and post the output of mount | grep tmp. Did you reboot the node before the backup run?

Hi,
Thank you for you prompt reply!

Apparently it is not:
root@pve:~# mount | grep tmp
udev on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,nosuid,relatime,size=16332280k,nr_inodes=4083070,mode=755,inode64)
tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=3273376k,mode=755,inode64)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,inode64)
tmpfs on /run/lock type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=5120k,inode64)
tmpfs on /run/user/0 type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,size=3273372k,nr_inodes=818343,mode=700,inode64)

The node was rebooted.
What should I do then?
