I am backing up a VM that is running MS SQL Server 2008 for use with GFI MailArchiver. Our company has around 45 users and a mail volume of about 3 Gb per month, ~100 Mb/day. However, the daily backup size on weekdays is around 100 Gb! On weekends with very little mail traffic, the backup size...

Hi, in the Datacenter view, select Storage. Then use "Add" to add a Proxmox Backup Server as a storage. Afterwards, define a backup to use your PBS storage as a target. hth, Lars

Thank you. I'm thinking of using a SAN with 10 gbit/s iSCSI instead. Do you have any experience with that?

Hello, I think we have a problem with the disk performance of our Proxmox 7.0 server as a "Windows Server 2012 R2" guest feels sluggish and I guess the values from pveperf should be better. pveperf with running VM (just one on this node): CPU BOGOMIPS: 128001.60 REGEX/SECOND...

It's ok now.

I already thought, that I should wait over night, but it seems I need more patience =) I interrupted the sync so there is still some space left. Should be ok until this afternoon when the 24 hours are over.

Hello, I had started a sync from a remote PBS when I noticed that the disk was running full. I stopped the sync, ran a garbage collection, but the disk was still not at the free space value as it was before. How can I fix this? Lars

No idea. While updating to Bullseye perhaps? freshclam updated the database and finished with WARNING: Clamd was NOT notified: Can't connect to clamd through /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl: No such file or directory I was then able to start the daemon. After a reboot it was still ok.

The admin guide could be a little bit more verbose than just "Use SMTP HELO tests." (for all the options) ;-) The general information here applies to "SMTP HELO checks"? https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Spam-Filtering-for-MX/smtpchecks.html And I found this for Postfix. Same as "SMTP HELO checks"...

I noticed this in the logs (journalctl -p 4) after having updated PMG: Jul 15 17:10:31 mygateway freshclam[307]: Can't save PID to file /var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid: No such file or directory Jul 15 17:10:31 mygateway systemd[1]: clamav-freshclam.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'...

After some more reading I learnt that it would be a bad idea to put an Exchange server into the DMZ (as it needs a connection to the DC (amongst others)). So, will have to find out how to proxy Active Sync. Anyone using this?

Hello, we are currently running a local Exchange installation. Mail is fetched via Popcon (so there is an annoying delay when receiving mails). Active Sync is possible through Port Forwarding on our firewall to the Exchange host (access is restricted to our VPN and some IP ranges of carriers...

Thanks. https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3388

I have switched the user "user-vm03" for a sync job to some other user and deleted the user afterwards. Though, it still shows up in some files: # grep user-vm /etc/proxmox-backup/* acl.cfg:acl:1:/datastore/sync_datastore:user-vm03@pbs:DatastoreBackup shadow.json: "user-vm03"...

- Save the new name for new backups of that VM (so this would be store per backup and not per VM id) - same as above - agreed =) - Because this would have to be done manually although it could be automated

Oh =) Don't know why, but it seemed like this wouldn't be possible. Also, I didn't find it mentioned in the help.

"Datastore > Content" shows only the VM numbers, e.g. "vm/107". Would be handy to see the same VM name (e.g. "myserver") as configured in PVE. Lars

Hello, we have two internal PBS and one external one. The external is using remote sync to pull backups from the first local installation. Now, I wanted to add the (new) second one, but noticed that I cannot specify a port. This is needed so I can configure our firewall to forward different...

ok, thx!
