I have been trying to solve an issue when trying to backup a VM, would get an error. I tried restart the node, now that the VM is not running it can't find the original attached disk. it shows Download TASK ERROR: timeout: no zvol device link for 'vm-201-disk-0' found after 300 sec found. It...

I've read the other thread. How do I export the zpool rpool? Isn't my whole system installed on it? That is where the local-zfs is located under rpool/data. Do I shut down all VMS and then export the pool? I've done it with other pools, but never with rpool

I know this thread is older but somebody referred me here. I had a working VM it was even working but I couldn’t back it up to a PBS like I normally could. I would run a zfs list -t all and the volume was missing. This is all while the VM was running. Then I shutdown the VM and reboot the node...

Apologies. I've added the output atleast. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

Thank you. I tried as you recommended and will attempt a backup when office hours are over to limit any hiccups. Thank you very much for assisting me here.

Weird when trying to backup a proxmox backup VM. This is the error I get, even though the VM 201 is running and operable. When I enter the command zfs list -t all it does not show the disk for vm-201-disk in any location even though it's supposed to be in local-zfs. Task viewer: VM/CT 201 -...

ls -la /usbpool002/dataset002/store001/ns/csd-mis-001/vm total 10 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 3 Apr 4 2023 . drwxr-xr-x 3 backup backup 3 Apr 4 2023 .. drwxr-xr-x 26 backup backup 27 Oct 10 22:30 107 And the results of the ps aux | grep proxmox-backup: ps aux | grep proxmox-backup...

Wondering if this would fail also if there is a Garbage collection and Verify job running when trying to backup? I wouldn't think so since sometimes those tasks can take a long time depending on the type of storage used.

Thank you for clarifying. This is the output ls -l /usbpool002/dataset002/store001/ns/csd-mis-001/vm total 9 drwxr-xr-x 26 backup backup 27 Oct 10 22:30 107

Hello Chris. I don’t think I’ve ever changed the defaults on the system. How do I check that the owner and group is backup? Is root default? Should have all been created and setup with root@pam It was working and just stopped. I didn’t change the zpool backing.

Please help. I used to be able to make backups to this particular PBS server. I had to create a new VM and make backups. This is the error I am getting when I try to do that. ERROR: VM 108 qmp command 'backup' failed - backup connect failed: command error: unable to create backup group...

Thank you. So I should always make sure I have enough working space for both full VMs and then I can move around the disks as needed.

Is it possible to restore just 1 disk out of a VM? For example, I have a Windows Server 2016 VM which separates the data drive E:\ from the C:\ Operating System. Could I just restore the Operating system or just the Data drive from PBS? Sometimes there is an error after Windows Updates and the...

What is the best method to encrypt hard drives inside a Windows VM? I've seen now the option of TPM when creating VMs, would I be able to unlock that drive in another machine (VM) or physical using the recovery key? Is there a way to save the TPM that is created when the VM is created to restore...

Ran into some difficulty with a most recent Windows Update and the machine not working after. I have my operating system installed on C:\ and the data installed on D:\ drive, Two virtual disks, but part of the same VM. Would I be able to restore to a known working Operating system with C:\ and...

What would be the best way to do that? They way I've tried so far with results is through proxmox. I would create on device with a vlan (lets say vlan3 under the VM to handle the WAN, then I would add another network device with another vlan (vlan19) to handle the LAN network. The vmbr0 bridge...

I'm sure this has been asked before but I have had trouble finding the answer. Essentially I have an old Intel NUC where I installed Proxmox VE 8 on. I will most likely eventually get a Protectlii or build a box with multiple NICs. However, I wanted to get the Opnsense VM up, running and tested...

Thank you. What I am trying to understand is. Are you backing up system files within a VM using Restic to a remote repository? Or are you using Restic to Backup a PBS Client or tp a remote? I'm interested because I'm using Restic to backup a PBS on site to a remote site. On the Remote site I...

Curious about the setup. How are you making the backups? Is the backup making a snapshot through PBS versus backing inside the VM or container directly using Restic? Thank you so much for sharing

So I have an on premises Proxmox Virtual Environment with VMs on it, this gets backed up to another on premises Proxmox Backup Server which then gets Synced offsite to a Remote Location. This Remote Location then gets synced to an Offsite Location with ZFS Redundant Storage for further security...
