    Automating VM restore and homologation

    Looking at the API Documents I'm not entering the option to restore a vzdump, the best I saw was to get the configuration from a vzdump file. https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/api-viewer/#/nodes/{node}/vzdump/extractconfig Another option I found related to backup was this, which lists the VMs...

    Automating VM restore and homologation

    I've looked at the API a few times, in most cases to integrate with Zabbix and get information for monitoring PVE and VMs. I hadn't looked at the backup or restore part of the backup via the API. I'll see if I can assemble something in shellscript.

    Add a comment behind a Backup Group

    At the moment I think it is not possible, at least in the current version of the desktop client using man I did not find a way to do this! I may be mistaken, but I believe it is a possible feature to be added in the future. Sorry, I really should have put it in English as I always do, but I...

    Automating VM restore and homologation

    Good night, I would like to know if anyone here on the forum has started to implement some way to automate the process of restoring some proxmox backups (mainly from PBS) from time to time ... I say this because previously full backups just believe that the chances of having problems would be...

    Restoring encrypted backup outside the cluster

    Here for me I had to do the following step by step: 1 - In PBS remove all backups that I had previously generated, to get rid of backups with different encryption keys 2 - Recreate the datastore 3 - Copy via scp the file /etc/pve/priv/storage/pbs06.enc from the local host to the host in the...

    Restoring encrypted backup outside the cluster

    Good afternoon friends! I had tried to copy the json from the /etc/pve/priv/storage/pbs06.enc file manually to the other PBS, but it didn't work properly, I went to check the md5 hash of it and saw that it was different, probably some space or something like that . After I sent to the...

    Restoring encrypted backup outside the cluster

    My goal is to start backups from scratch, copy the key from one of the Proxmox nodes and throw it in the other cluster. Regarding pvesm, I never used it, would you have any recommended material to do this? I saw that everything in /etc/pve is mounted in fuse, I never had any experience with it...

    QCOW2 to Proxmox

    1 - Create a VM from Gui 2 - In text mode (SSH or Console of Proxmox) run the following command qm importdisk VMID (100 for example) disk.qcow2 local-lvm (The qcow2 disk has to be INSIDE the Proxmox, either in local storage, a mounted external hard drive, shared storage, etc.) 3 - After...

    Restoring encrypted backup outside the cluster

    Friends good night! I am testing PBS in parallel with the full backup of some VMs and now with the option of incremental backup I can deploy something that I would like to do for a long time. My client has some local Proxmox and 2 PVEs in the OVH cloud, my goal is to use PBS to, in case of a...

    [SOLVED] Backup error for VMs in PVE 6.2-6

    After some tests I discovered the problem! Despite appearing as 100% of the backup performed, it seems that Proxmox needs more free space to complete the compression and only after that delete the old backup. When I put it in new storage, he ran the job again, after that I deleted some backups...

    [SOLVED] Backup error for VMs in PVE 6.2-6

    Hello, I have in a pve 4 VMs running normally, being 2 Windows and 2 Linux.

    Import VM from Google Cloud Platform

    The problem was not to import the disc, but to boot it! I found out that the problem was in grub, some parameter in it was giving problems, using the boot-repair-disk I was able to boot, but only when I go into recovery mode in grub and after that I have the boot continue!

    Import VM from Google Cloud Platform

    Good afternoon friends! I was wondering if someone has already migrated a VM from Google Cloud to Proxmox, I tried to use Veeam Agent for Linux to generate an image of the system on NFS storage and restored it on Proxmox, but it does not boot at all. =( It is with the phrase: Booting From Hard...

    Proxmox backup log centralizer

    Well, I started to develop something focused on that this weekend. A centralized reporting system from Proxmox where we will send the email there instead of our inbox and it will generate a report in this model. As I am not a programmer I do not know if I will finish the system or abandon it...

    Raid in Proxmox

    To RAID Proxmox you have 3 possibilities: 1 - Have a RAID controller compatible with Linux and configure the RAID directly on it; 2 - Configure a RAID via ZFS, however for this Proxmox will need a good amount of RAM specifically for this, the recommended is 8GB only for ZFS; 3 - Use RAID via...

    Proxmox backup log centralizer

    Good night friends, I would like to know if any of you know any tools like Duplicati Monitoring for Proxmox backups. https://www.duplicati-monitoring.com/ In this case, the Duplicati Monitoring tool is nothing more than an online service where we define all backup jobs that Duplicati...

    Storages documentation correction

    Follows the print with the disk size created in Proxmox: Using the ls command actually shows 32GB, but using the du -hs command, which I usually use to know the size of a file, tells the size of the disk rather than the actual size. I didn't quite understand why the commands were different...

    Storages documentation correction

    I understood, I didn't know it was so complex. As I see it using dir-like arrays, it would automatically allocate space on the hard drive, much like VMWare and Hyper-V do, but I found it strange when I found in a soyoustart.com installation that I only use local storage ( type dir) can also be...
