G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.After you discover how it works under the hood, you will follow the recommended way : Local PBS then WAN PBS Remote Sync from. Give a try , I bet on no more QEMU guest agent stopped with a local PBS.

G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.Root cause isn't QEMU guest agent itself, others services can fail too. I'd had same problem with too slow HDD on PBS side. Too slow PBS impacts source guest activity , timeout up to crash ( see simulated example here ) Fleecing is mandatory for...

G_gabriel reacted to pulipulichen's post in the thread [SOLVED] Why does my VM backup to PBS hang and show "dirty-bitmap status: created new"? with
Like.
I did a quick test to reproduce this backup "hang" issue, and the results are pretty clear. It seems Backup Fleecing is exactly what we need for these kinds of bottlenecks. My test setup:I tried to simulate a "worst-case scenario" with a... -
G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.again, sorry for my english wording... Do you get the point of "Stop mode" backup ? "Stop mode" backup is still "live". Fleecing option is mandatory to mitigate. https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/backup-sync-performance-over-vpn.164450/post-835072

G_gabriel reacted to casalicomputers's post in the thread Active-Backup interface keeps switching between the two links with Like.
Update: after a bit of research I think that the error in the dmesg logs has little if anything to do with the issue I described. Thats related to a bug (?) of the i40e driver, as I understand it: at first the interface tries to filter the vlan...

-
G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.not really fixes as snapshot is done during stop mode too. Stop mode can be more impacted because many I/O can be done during boot.
-
G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.if downtime isn't critical, if whole reading source isn't too long, the safest is schedule shutdown guest, then backup offline, then start guest after Backup done using hook script
-
G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.Reminder : during backup, I/O writes are sent to PBS before within guest itself, it's a "copy-before-write" méthode. There is fleecing option to mitigate.

G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.sorry for my poor english wording... do you backup directly over WAN ?
-
G_gabriel replied to the thread Guest agent not running on Windows 11.it's known issue when PBS is slower than guest I/O usage. guest is slowdown up to crash some apps if timeout because snapshot is done when guest is shutdown state, then guest started directly while backup started concurrently.
