Good morning, We have created a cluster with 2 servers. since we created it, the backups do not work.

We show you make backup of node 2, but if the backup folder does not exist on node 1, the system says that the folder is not correct.

Backups of all nodes in the master makes them?

To avoid running out of backups, we tried to connect directly to node 2, via https: / / node2, but Proxmox gives a message that we do not have write permissions.

That way I can make backups of the machines in the cluster? we can only make backups of anything: (

Thank you very much

vzdump backups are host specific. means if you want to make backups of guests running on the node you need to specify a backup destination accessible on the node.

Thank you very much

the backup (GUI) needs to be configured on the master (also for the nodes). nodes GUI has only read access.
 
Hi,

I create backup folder for example:

Example 1

Node 1 (master) \vz\backups
Node 2 (slave) \vz\backups2

Create a backup task for a node 2 in to console node 1 (master)

Cluster node : node 2(slave)
Destination: \vz\backups2
Selecte the kvm machine of node 2

click on save.

See the mensage " error : the destination folder \vz\backups2 is not exist.

Example 2


Node 1 (master) \vz\backups
Node 2 (slave) \vz\backups2

Create a backup task for a node 2 in to console node 1 (master)

Cluster node : node 2(slave)
Destination: \vz\backups
Selecte the kvm machine of node 2

click on save.

Its create task ok

but the backup is not finish.

the line on sys log is: vzdum --quiet --node2 --snapshot --dumpdir /vz/backups


Thanks very much

the backup dir has to exist on both nodes (looks like you find a bug).


Example 2


Node 1 (master) \vz\backups
Node 2 (slave) \vz\backups2

Create a backup task for a node 2 in to console node 1 (master)

Cluster node : node 2(slave)
Destination: \vz\backups

but the backup is not finish.

the line on sys log is: vzdum --quiet --node2 --snapshot --dumpdir /vz/backups


Thanks very much

I do not understand the second issue.
 
This was a timely post for me. I was having the same issue as what seems to be a bug. I confirm the behavior, but as long as you have a directory wit the the same name on the master and node, it works fine. You just have an empty directory on one machine.
 
hi ,

this is the log error ,, any idea?

Detailed backup logs:

im try whitch suspend mode,, and another error :(



vzdump --quiet --node 1 --suspend --compress --dumpdir /var/lib/vz/backups --mailto reloaded@mydomain.com 102

Again, there is no free space on "/var/tmp/" (use --tmpdir option to set to another dir).
 
Hi, thanks very much.

One cuestion,, howto change tmpdir at directoriy/var/lib/vz/tmp, for example?

Thanks you
 
Code:
vzdump 101 --dumpdir /var/lib/vz/dump --tmpdir /var/lib/vz/tmp

this line I will have to put in each backup?

I mean,

the intention is to make the backup from the web interface.

So I would like to know how to change the TMP directory for all scheduled backups from Proxmox interface.
 
Hello everyone.

Just need to know how to change the temporary file.

/ var / tmp / a / var / lib / vz / tmp

As indicated it is adding the file / etc / vzdump.conf.

But, to be put in that file to change the temporary file path?

Putting it in the file - tmpdir / var / lib / vz / tmp would be enough?

Thanks for your patience.
