Hi,

I'm new to proxmox and we're running a couple of VMs to our Proxmox 4 nodes for a couple of weeks now and it's running fine ..
Now we want to run backups on a daily basis, so we attached an NFS volume to our prox server, when I run a manual backup of one virtual machine the backup is perfect written to the NFS volume so permissions and connection is OK..

Even when i try to schedule a backup each day of all VMs to the same NFS volume I receive the following error when I try to save the schedule:

Permission check failed (/, Sys.Modify) (403)

Can somebody help me out with this or point me in the correct direction ?

Thanks in advance !
 
scheduling a backup sets up a cron job, which means it requires more permissions. it looks like your current user lacks the Sys.Modify permission - either switch user or change the permissions.
