Hey Thank you for all the hints. I think I’ll use "borgbackup" directly out of the VM. I just need to back up a directory and a database. I had considered simply backing up the entire VM from one of the PBS servers - I thought that would be the easy way and would give me the option to back up...

Hi I'm currently looking for a backup for certain VMs. Either a backup from PBS or PVE. I have two separate buildings, in both are running PBS but I would like to have another backup of the backups on a untrusted storage. I could use sshfs but I prefer borg backup. If I'm going to backup the...

Nice! That is sorted! Not a super duper solution but I'm happy. I bought a new graphic card and installed proxmox in efi mode. Thanks for having an eye on this thread ;)

Got the issue with the audio on the optiplex node "sorted". Just bought an USB audio dongle. Not the solution but it works. Still the issue on AMD. I double checked the guides again and installed also windows 10 but on both are the same result. Could it be an BIOS legacy issue? Would be a new...

Hmm, anyone?

Hi I'm currently fighting the passthrough game. Optiplex - Intel Intergrated graphic (audio) I got a new device which is an Dell Optiplex 7040 which has VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 [8086:1912] (rev 06) integrated. Graphic works but no audio is...

Hmm, now the next issue ... What I did so far: 1. Add /etc/pve/qemu-server/vmid.conf as @_gabriel mentioned. 2. Detach/remove EFI and local-lvm disks 3. Create first EFI and local-zfs disks with the same size 4. pbs-restore --repository root@pam@127.0.0.1:pbs-datastore...

Ah, this looks promising! Thanks! Just to double check it before I run the commands. I have a vm with the following config: efidisk0: wolfs:vm-107-disk-0,efitype=4m,pre-enrolled-keys=1,size=1M scsi0: local-lvm:vm-107-disk-0,iothread=1,size=10G scsi1: wolfs-4tb:vm-107-disk-0,size=1524G I would...

That would work if hadn't changed to local-zfs instead of local-lvm. I actually need to restore local-lvm to local-zfs and attach the "big" storage.

Hm, can't choose config file, only storage. There is not enough space to restore. So basically I have to delete the "old" storage and restore everything again? I have another vm, similar situation/size. I was hoping to avoid that :D Is it maybe possible to delete the big storage part in the...

Hey I joined a cluster and things went wrong during this process. I'm not quite sure what happened, I guess a mix up with IPs when a new device joined the network. The result was that all the vms were gone and other strange things happened. It doesn't really matter though, as I was planning on...

Ok. Thank you both! I'll stick to zfs.

What exactly would be the issue? Optiplex Wifi HDDs ... Would it be better to have each node their own storage via zfs and is HA still possible for pve 3?

Hi I need a little bit help regarding a set up which will contain 3 proxmox server for high availability. I've currently running 1 pve as a main server which contains the following hardware: 1 Proxmox - 128GB Ram - AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor - 512GB NVMe - 2 x 2TB Seagates HDD...

Oh yeah, I would never find this solution! Thank you both and thank you again for the detailed answers before @Dunuin This seems to be sorted. Sync should work. If not, I'll be here again soon ;)

Hey I finally have time to have a look again for that issue. And again, thanks for your help I really appreciate it! This actually works now since 1 month or so. I don't have any problems anymore. And it seems fast enough for now. But only for one drive. I randomly run a backup for the second...

This happened only during the backup. Sometimes by 10% sometimes by 60% sometimes 99%. And these are all snapshots. I don't think the drives are the problem. But who knows, I'm definitely keeping an eye on it ;)

Thanks for the very detailed explanation. At the moment I am running some tests with PBS installed directly on PVE. It seems to be a bit faster, but the backup process is currently not fully activated. I have an SSD with 1TB lying around. Does each HDD need its own cache drive or would one be...

Hi I would like to change a bit of my current backup procedure. I have two identical external hard drives, 8TB each, connected via USB 3. I have my data stored at home and travel from time to time somewhere for several weeks and I want to keep an encrypted backup with me. Both hard drives...

Im going to mark this here at solved. It never happened again since. The main question was solved anyway. Thanks @fiona
