    [SOLVED] pbs on bare metal with pve updating

    Thanks that's great. Any issues as far as updating? I'm assuming pve first, pbs 2nd (starting with second node first ofc)? So you're backing up pve1 to pbs2 and pbs2 syncs data store to pbs1. are you running any vm/lxc on pve2 DR or it's just an 'empty' dr node? have you done pbs1 to pve1...

    Disk configuration for new (virtual) backup server?

    i was thinking more in terms of expanding storage in the future without shutting and handling everything on the os level but this is also a good point!

    Disk configuration for new (virtual) backup server?

    use pbs to set up zfs mirror and let os control it. disks in pass-through mode. this is the recommended setup.
