Sounds like whatever is resulting in that outcome is probably resulting in the same thing on my end too. And yeah it looks like you're also speaking to my original concern that the invalid slash characters should have been blocked before file creation (and I'm not even sure why Proxmox Backup...
Being able to see the IP addresses in lists of VMs/CTs on each node, across the cluster, and being able to "search" for which object has an IP address (assuming Proxmox even "knows") would all be VERY useful. Especially at-scale.
I'm currently working with a new-to-me client and learning plenty...
I have total confidence that these files were created by PBS, all evidence in-hand shows it. And the scenario you describe has not happened for this relevant PBS system.
I don't know exactly when I will be able to get back onto that system next, but I will try my darndest to remember.
As for the error... "Could not create path" since it interprets the slash in the file as referencing "wanting" to make a folder.
Oh I'm with you about upgrading that system, but to be clear this system isn't "mine" but one that I have provided support for. So I will be convincing about upgrades likely in the near future, but "how soon" is probably not "soon".
The underlying filesystem for the Datastore is btrfs (not set...
Yeah in both Proxmox VE and Proxmox Backup Server, we really need the ability to see higher-level statistics for usage. Some examples:
How much Bytes-On-Disk was used total for each Backup Task across an entire Proxmox VE cluster (one backup task configuration typically backs things up across...
I copied the name of the file exactly (except changing two sensitive words to redacted, which did not alter any slash characters at all in the process).
So yes, I am 100% confident the slash is as I have shown above. That is what was in the filename both before and after the redaction.
There...
I've recently had a need to copy off a PBS system the Task History Logs and a bunch of those Task History files have been created with "bad" naming conventions. This has caused me problems for syncing the files onto my nextCloud, and I'm sure you'll see the problem with this example...
Due to some intricacies of reverse-proxy stuff (which I'm really not going to go into for security reasons), I have added an entry to the /etc/hosts file for every node in a particular Proxmox VE cluster. This is so that the FQDN of the SMTP server I am sending notifications through resolves to...
I find that Proxmox RAM reporting is never accurate, and it's quite useless to be honest. I build a new VM and haven't done anything with it. 6GB RAM capacity, only using about 400MB, and qemu-guest-agent installed (Ubuntu 20.04 in this case) and it reports over 5GB of RAM used. And that 400MB...
Can we get the ability to add comments to a backup we create? I'd really like it if I could add something like "Before installing game server files" or whatever. Even if the backup gets deleted in backup cycling, that can be super handy.
Please? :)
Do you really want me to run my system to 0% swap and 0% RAM to prove this is a problem? Because I'm not going to do that. Both of the problematic systems have continued to use more and more swap each day, one of which is at 50% swap usage.
The evidence I've presented is conclusive enough to...
Thanks to my alerting failing to E-Mail me (unrelated issue) I have been able to observe multiple nodes continue to follow this growth pattern without stopping. The swap grows every time a backup happens, there is nothing else going on, and this happens every day (as my backups are daily) once...
My issue isn't inherently with the caching, it is with swapping. Swapping on these nodes doesn't happen until the RAM is full (with cache and application data, etc). This is why I flush the cache, as it "buys more time" before swapping occurs. If this caching happened without any swapping, I...
Alright, so I want to clarify, I can totally appreciate the scepticism around what I'm saying here. I agree that it is not quite matching expectations. I run a cluster where two of the nodes exhibit this behaviour, and one doesn't. I've tried to find an explanation, and that's part of why I'm...
