I think we are just talking about backing up the host itself (without VMs). At least thats how i meant my original topic. The VMs can be backed up with PBS anyway. I would backup /etc , and not single subdirectories in /etc. Otherwise you miss your cronjobs and maybe other things after you...

I didn't try. I decided to do a 1-time full backup of the OS-disk with Clonezilla, and use a script to backup /etc daily via cronjob.

I found a much easier solution than having a second PBS. As Dunuin said above: Just use vzdump instead of pbs to backup pbs itself. And in case of disaster just restore the PBS VM first and then all others. Thats my current setup and i tested the restore-scenario, and it works fine.

Thanks, you are right. Thats what i did now. Works nicely.

Well its a homelab, not a productive/company environment. The pbs has an NFS4 share mounted which is on a QNAP NAS.

In my case im also running pbs as a VM on the same host as the other VMs. I think it does make sense in some scenarios. But correct me if im wrong. For example in mine: In my homelab i have only my Windows desktop and my physical host. The physical host is very powerful and has plenty of RAM...

In case it matters, here it says: https://www.urbackup.org/download.html#linux_all_binary Does this sound hostile to PVE?

Are there any caveats or dangers installing Urbackup-client on the physical PVE host itself, in order to backup up only its boot Disk regularly? We are running pve 7.4 on a single node with LVM on the hosts OS disk. No clustering or anything, its a small setup with 7 VMs. The main storage for...

UPDATE: We just rebooted the server. The problem still persists. The error message in the GUI when trying to add the NFS share again, is: "create storage failed: mkdir /mnt/pve/vlnas1-nfsvol1/images: Read-only file system at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Storage/Plugin.pm line 1374. (500)" Is there any...

Im having the same problem. - Not with PBS, but with the PVE host itself which has mounted an NFS share of a QNAP NAS. One day my NAS seemed to hang/freeze and i needed to reboot it. Now i always had this STALE error, when i tried accessing files there. In the PVE GUI u cannot remount NFS...

Ok, thanks for the hint. As of what i have read, the installer cannot make partitions, right? Means i cannot just make a smaller partition on the M.2 disk during installation, and later use the rest of it for other purposes right? Same for the SSD RAID i guess. If i choose ZFS RAID during...

Hi! Im new to Proxmox. Because im working with Vmware a lot in my company, i have an ESXi/vSphere setup also for my homelab. My company "borrowed" a license for vSphere to me for a few years, because i was using it also for some tests and some development stuff for smaller projects. Though...

Mine didnt fail yet. Im just wondering if it would notify me at all if it does. ;-) Because it would be really bad if it doesn't. Regards, ND

Has there been anyone fixing this yet?
