Ok let's say I have two tapes that I want to use and I want to write to the tape every night. First night on tape #1, second night on tape #2, third night on tape #1 and so on. I added both tapes to one media pool and set allocation = daily and retention = 1 days. This still isn't correct. How...

I am a PBS beginner and try to use the magnet tape backup to create a daily backup of my machines. I added a couple of tapes to my inventory and created a media pool "daily" and want to write to it every night. This worked great, but now both my tapes are status = "full" and when the job runs I...

I want to create a backup solution for my PBS which is installed directly on the PVE as a package (i know that it's not recommended) and I am wondering which config files and so on I need to backup to restore the PBS instance in case of a hardware failure? Config files are here...

Ok great, but as mentioned this is not the best way, I think I fucked up a bit while ordering my hardware ;-) Is there an option to install PBS on a seperate physical computer without iSCSI access to the tape loader, and then orchestrate the backup that goes from the PVE to the tape loader...

I have a question concerning the Proxmox Backup Server and how to set it up. My setup is a server wit PVE installed with a direct access to the hardware magnet tape loader. I just now realized that PVE doesn't directly support magnet tape backups but only through PBS. Does the PBS vm/bare...

Actually the host public key files can be changed at any time and will be in place after a full stop/start of the machine. This is how I do it currently over the Proxmox UI, but would like to have a more elegant solution.

I would like to find a way to handle SSH keys for all my KVM machines with a script, ideally with something that can be integrated into a Gitlab CI pipeline. I configure all my ssh keys through cloud-init and the Proxmox user interface currently. An ideal solution would also use cloud-init. I...

Hi, We are evaluating KVM/proxmox to replace our current virtual environment. I made some tests on CPU and Harddisk. CPU is faster in KVM (about 10%) but the Harddisk is about 50% slower than our current system. I started googling and reading trough this forums and couldn't find any hints. In...
