    How to add parameters to proxmox influxDB exporter?

    S3 Backup for proxmox backup server

    Hi, In the restic client there is mount option. After the storage is mounted you have to point a PBS data store to this folder. I have done this by editing the /etc/proxmox-backup/datastore.cfg as PBS doesn't have an option to import existing datastore, yet. $ restic mount --help The "mount"...

    Hello, I am backing up my VMs to PBS. Previously I think there was recommendation to control backup the retention policy from the PBS. With the new more flexible scheduler in 7.1 I would like to set a "snapshot like" backup for some VMs every 30 min and retain them for maximum a few days. This...

    Backup failed to restore

    Do you use PBS at all? I can see option to manually import a VM backup. Alternative solution - install PBS on SiteA (original) and siteB (target). Connect the two instance. Make backup on SiteA and sync the pbs on SiteB. Restore from SiteB.

There you will see all the existing VM backups. You can select the one you want and restore it is as different VM. Basically create...

    Proxmox Backup Server (beta)

    Why is this separate product and not a function of Proxmox? Is this market positioning strategy or something else? Thanks a lot anyway. Backup has been one of the rough edges of ProxMox for some time now.
