If you set the "is_mountpoint" it should be a dataset. Otherwise the path would not be a mountpoint.
Using a dedicated dataset is what I would do. Having that separation give you some benefits, for example, should you ever want to use the...
Suggestion for PDM:
We now can see the remote node IPs, better if we can add some note, like:
- 10.10.10.2 (automatically get the Hostname or extra text)
I have not clear about this:
Should I use Dataset or just create a new Folder inside mounted pool?
When we need is_mountpoint option?
NB: The backup feature in this case only for faster migration purpose, of course backup server was used.
Suggestion for PDM:
By default PDM Migrate "Delete Source" is True. I think better set it to False. So any VPS that can not run correctly in new server still has its original VPS.
Hi Johannes, I think you misunderstanding the issue. Proxmox DM now already support PVE 6 (except PVE 5 because has no Token feature, so I agree with you to ignore this PVE 5 version), you can see PDM has option to use manual API Token in this...
Thanks for best effort to release PVE 9.
But ... ZFS still not able to store backup files, we must manually add "is_mountpoint" option to storage.cfg. Will you add this option to the GUI?
Because we need PDM to make migration to PVE 8 easier.
Updating to PVE 5/6/7 to 8 sometime is not an option, sometime better to install PVE 8/9 from scratch then migrate old VM, at least in my case :)
Currently, I must manually backup, copy to...
If "is_mountpoint yes" then error:
unable to activate storage 'local-backup' - directory is expected to be a mount point but is not mounted: '/local-data/backup' (500)
If I remove "is_mountpoint" option then error gone.
NB: hope this feature...
Hope PDM also support PVE 7. We can Start and Stop VM, but PVE 7 Migration still error:
api error (status = 400: api returned unexpected data - failed to parse api response)
This will very useful since I have many PVE 6 and 7 which allready...
