Is PBS PLUS a good solution for host backup (Physical linux and windows machines) ?

[frju365]

Hello everybody,

Thanks for PBS. I needed in fact to backup some physical host. And PBS don't do it natively (at least not from the GUI). So I found PBS Plus (not vibecoded liçke some other) https://github.com/pbs-plus/pbs-plus. It seems to be very nice and match my needs but I wanted to know if anyone had some experience with this "PBS extension" ?

Thanks in advance for your answer,

It's not the insult anymore that you made it out to be.

No, but the documentation is a bit sparse (that would be better with AI). It's not clear what it does and how it does it.
Can it e.g. restore files from a PBS VM backup from within the VM? That is something a couple of customers already asked me, that is somehow important.

Well as far as I know I remain free not to use vibecoded app. And it's not an insult, just a choice. I've many concerns about AI and many concerns about impact on software (because as a reminder AI stole code ^^). I won't talk about that here because it's not the topic.

Your comment is completely offtopic.

And perhaps my question was not clear enough... I don't speak about VM, only physical host.
