@UdoB have had a bit of a play with this today and throttled the replication tasks as well. seems to have done the trick with the high CPU but this also slows down a migration immensely, especially when you have a VM that's 3+ TB or one with multiple 1TB drives. I was testing replication today...

@gfngfn256 thanks for the info , i was replying to Marios statement about using Veeam to backup the files /rpool and using PBS for the rest. I cant see any benefit of using 2 different systems to backup /rpool. with that said just backing up the correct files will give the admin a good head...

Hi @Mario Rossi According to the documentation is also covers bare metal when using the PBS client. What have i missed here? https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/backup-client.html Creating Backups This section explains how to create a backup from within the machine. This can be a physical host, a...

Hi All Just curious why not just use PBS Linux client to backup the root OS files in the same way the Veeam client is being put forward. PBS client can do a file only backup/ restore. What am I missing here? ""Cheers G

Thanks for the methodology, I'll start with 50% of the current bandwidth and see how it go's on a test VM. Have you tested with insecure mode ? Even in this thread we see mixes results. It makes sense that secure mode will have more overhead than insecure mode due to in flight encryption/...

Thanks @UdoB That's a good suggestion it hadn't crossed my mind. I'll look into it a little more. My initial concern is the high cpu generated, are you suggesting that throttling the migration network will reduce cpu and disk IO? I suspect the high disk IO is part of the problem, one of our...

Hi All Just jumping onto this thread with the same issue. Proxmox - 8.3 latest 20 GB network bandwidth available When performing a live migration the host hist 100% CPU Disk is crazy and this causes VM's to crash or become unresponsive this basically means we can not migrate to or from the...

Hey @iamspartacus just came across this thread and am seeing similar issues. did you ever work out a solution to get around the 40002 error? would love to hear more about your experience. ""Cheers G

Hi @Maximiliano i'm actually seeing this issue atm. the user has access to the top level path for all datastores. is there a specific area or information i can provide and where do i grab this from? sorry should have included the user is set to "DatastoreBackup" role. ""G

Thank you for the additional information i'll have our team look into it as we already run Veeam for VMware just hadn't crossed the bridge to use Veeam with BPS. Do you also use PMG in the setup? ta

thanks @itNGO which Veeam service are you using please? some feedback from our team indicated that just using PBS we could potentially miss out on emails since the last backup, so i'm guessing using veeam catches these missing emails/ data to the last 1 hour increment reducing RPO. have you...

Hi @itNGO We are starting to take a look at this scenario for a client. may i ask whats your experience with restoring Exchange from backup? Have you had the need to do this yet? Looking at options of running 2 DAG's for HA and using PBS for backups but there is a lot of resource overlap with...

Thanks @Dunuin have checked all of these items and none are true. - no ISO attached - as advised its sitting on local storage SSD's on the same host no latency - no pass-through devices attached - the VM is a template and so are the other VM's that also fail, they are either powered down...

Hi All anyone else experiencing failed backups for templates or powered down VM's? see output below as an example. 103: 2023-04-14 02:00:02 INFO: Starting Backup of VM 103 (qemu) 103: 2023-04-14 02:00:02 INFO: status = stopped 103: 2023-04-14 02:00:02 INFO: backup mode: stop 103: 2023-04-14...

confirming its all working well on 7.3.3 thank you.
