Yes, just realised my HP DL360P might need a physical TPM card. Would be nice to have some idea about what Proxmox will do about TPM - as you can imagine and have said passthrough won't really work when you have 3 Windows 11 VM's I have been able to install the "leaked" dev build of 11 and so...

None issue with Proxmox. Thought it was. Solving

I've added two step auth and PVE can't start backups with error error fetching datastores - 401 Unauthorized. I don't really want to add a new user just for backups... I'd need to change owner for all backups, etc. Am I missing anything to make it painless to have TOTP and have VE just use...

Is there an issue for keeping bitmap persistent between restart? I have an interest in this. (as a temporary solution, is hibernation a possibility to keep bitmap persistent - assuming no resizing, moving stuff, ec)

Just an update, until Proxmox changes their mind about bindmounts inside an LXC for causing it to suspend and do a slow zdump (making Proxmox Backup Server real slow), the whole point of PBS is to speed up backups. Only plus side is the smaller backup size. I think going forward, I will make a...

FIY, thanks so much for this tidit of info. I was feared backup schedules were stored in a .db file or something, that would be cumbersome to edit by hand. This cron style format makes it pretty easy to download/manipulate and place it back - especially when you have 50+ backup jobs with...

Can you explain this a bit more? So one PBS server. One datastore.... Create remote called "localhost" Same creds, login, etc. On the "new" datastore, have a sync job using "localhost" and select your main? This is what I am testing now, that's what I THINK you mean. So your new store is...

So, I have a store 'pool' - a clone/instance of PBS with another store called "pool2". I make pool2 a remote to "sync" from the 1st instance 'pool'? Ugh. I have like 5 + stores I need to duplicate as "remotes" simply for keeping dirty bitmaps....

I have a Samba server that I have working on a cluster and Samba share VM. I have used this CFIS server many times, use it on the LAN, I know it works. However, for some strange reason, a Proxmox host suddenly had the CFIS offline which was working for several days. I restarted, removed and...

Can you clarify if that is for each backup task, ran via cli manually? Or can this be set globally for all backups, that happen when scheduled?

Because of this issue: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/pbs-backup-write-data-failed-command-error-protocol-canceled.89688/ Backups were not completing - the existing incomplete backup is not valid. deleting them and successful backups resolve the issue.

Not enough RAM was assigned to PBS. dsmeg helped find OOM

Yeah, I used paths that were not in use by MergerFS (e.g direct mounted paths) and PBS worked just fine.

This issue continues to happen. Strangely, on other stores: I have one. E.G. PBS and several others. PBS works 90% of the time, but other ones on separate disks don't. E.G. PBS: INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 148 --node pve --storage PBS --mode snapshot --remove 0 INFO: Starting Backup...

I was thinking this - but wanted to avoid that. You're right though I don't have enough disks with big enough space (either 2.5" 1 TB 7200 RPM drives) or slower 3.5" 16 TB+ drives to sacrifice for RAID though.

I tried again and a new one seemed to finally finish. It's touch and go. 2021-05-23T13:10:02+00:00: verify StoragePool:vm/142/2021-05-23T04:18:01Z 2021-05-23T13:10:02+00:00: check qemu-server.conf.blob 2021-05-23T13:10:02+00:00: check drive-scsi0.img.fidx 2021-05-23T13:33:48+00:00...

Is it possible to have backups (from a development point of view) to put backups of a VM in various datastores so different bits are stored on more than one disk, so when it comes to restoring, you're utilising more than one disk (which can be faster than reading from just one disk when...

This task was running for less than 1 second but I thought I was it running for 30 minutes + In any case, none of my verification tasks have completed 2021-05-23T12:30:52+00:00: verify StoragePool:vm/142/2021-05-23T04:18:01Z 2021-05-23T12:30:52+00:00: check qemu-server.conf.blob...

I just tried a 500 GB VM backup just fine, but running this one, for some reason, results in this. I've tried more than once. INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 142 --storage PBS --node HPProliantDL360PGen8 --mode snapshot --remove 0 INFO: Starting Backup of VM 142 (qemu) INFO: Backup...
