Isn't it possible for pbs to pause/stop backup if it is foreseeable that the disk will run out of space (or just a reserved space of a few gigs for system as in other backup programs)?
Ok. I moved some chunks und did gc twice like mentioned above.
Can I set quota to a percentage (e.q. 99) or only to a fixed size like 14.3T?
Is it possible to reduce the reserved space for root to less than 100G (!) ?
Over the weekend my pbs datastore is running out of space and now I'm unable to run a garbage collection.
This is the output of discus:
and this is the output of zpool list:

For the sake of completeness:
I wasn't able to passthrough the hba mentioned above to 2 different vm's.
I solved it by attaching another hba (HP) which was laying around to the host ;-)
one last (?) question:
in this case i never have to run a prune job on the target because the pruned snapshots are "deleted" by the sync job (respectively the gc afterwards on target)....
as i understand there's no 1:1 sync to a remote target (without processing the data afterwards) as known from "normal" backups (sync new files and delete old ones)?
so a sync copies the content (chunks) of (new) snaphots und without a garbage collection on remote it runs out of memory at a...
But i have to take a deepdive into the logs to see this... it should be visible in the dashboard. ...
Like in other backup programs... ups... did I say that out loud? :p
