    Restore Failures

    I have gotten a few week without error. However, for a particulat VM I am getting Blob too small error again. I went back to the last VM backup without errors and deleted the ones with errors. Ran a backup using Stopped, still got an error. Odd behaviour since another Node I am backing up had...

    Windows 10 VM Ballooning -> almost 100% Ram usage

    I was having the same issue. Memory was hovering around 90%, after uninstalling Virtio Balloon it dropped to around 20-30% which is inline with another server VM I have running. Main difference is the other server has more physical RAM allocated to the node with 64GB vs. 16GB. However, the 64GB...

    Scheduling Backup Image Verification of most recent backups.

    Is there a way to schedule verification of each backup after it's completed? It doesn't have to be done right after the backup is done, but in some timely manner. I found a script to run a verification, but it will verify every single image of every backup which I think can be redundant unless...

    Restic using rclone backend results in error backing up offsite. Error 500.

    This may not be the correct place to post, but I am trying to find a solution to this issue. I just started using rclone to backup my files from a Proxmox node to a remote location on a Synology NAS. However, I realized that partial backups could complicate things using rclone alone. I saw...

    Restore Failures

    An update. I did a backup from my local network with the downloaded remote backup and the verification passed. Now I am going to try and complete and incremental backup from the remote location. The image I had is a couple days old so this may take while to sync up. So to the external USB passed...

    Restore Failures

    @fabian My setup is almost like @luphi I have made a vzdump and brought it local to make a backup to PBS as well, however I got the same error of the blob being too small. My other non vm backups work, but not the Windows Server 2016 one. I'm wondering if it could be my disks which are VM...

    [SOLVED] Remote Offsite Backup options

    @fabian This is the logs from my email notification after the backup was complete. The PBS is running as a VM on PVE 6.2-10 and the store1 is a vmdisk ext4 I believe. I have another vm that backed up to that store and the restore was successful. Albeit the VM was only 32GB total about. I am...

    [SOLVED] Remote Offsite Backup options

    Sorry for the late reply. I am just coming around to this idea. Am I able to do a local backup. Restore it on a remote server, back it up to PBS and then continue my backups from the original server to the PBS backup image made from the local backup to remote server? Essentially...

    Restore Failures

    Any developments? If the verification fails, is there any way to repair it? Or remove those backups and start new? Does it matter whether backups are Snapshot, Suspend or Stop for the incremental VMs? Thanks.

    Restore Failures

    I am having this blob issue as well. I am having trouble restoring a Windows Server 2019 Standard VM backup wich shows as 1.17 TiB. On ther other hand, I have a 32 GiB Debian VM wich restores fine. I am running a verify task on the PBS server as well.

    ccp 0000:04:00.2: SEV: failed to INIT error 0x8003

    Good morning everybody. Since last week, whenever I reboot or shutdown then power on my Proxmox server I get this error. Can anybody help me decipher it? Not entirely sure what it is, but last week I upgrade the BIOS on my Supermicro Motherboard M11SDV-8C-LN4F AMD Epyc 3251 SOC with 2 dimms...

    Question Marks on Nodes and VMs

    I thought the Server VM was running normally, but I got a call from the office that it was not serving up its SQL Express database, in which case I had restart the node since I could not start the VM itself anymore. Here is my pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.2-1 (running kernel: 5.4.44-2-pve)...

    Question Marks on Nodes and VMs

    Getting Questions Marks on Nodes and VMS. A Couple Times I have gotten Exclamation marks on my Proxmox node with the PBS Server I am running on.

    I have had some weird behaviour. A couple times I have gottent Exclamation Marks on the Node and VMs the Proxmox Node which my PBS was running from. I think this had to do with exceeding the Hard drive space allocated, hence resulting in an I/O Error. I freed up some space on that particular...

    MX500 SSD Smart Errors

    I am trying to figure a few things out. I am following up on this drive. We took it out at one location, but the other location wanted to downsize, and didn't have the funds to build a new server so I put this in temporarily. They tell me for a few months, but who knows. Anyways this is my...

    [SOLVED] add existing datastore to pbs

    @RobFantini Didn't you just give me instructions on how to do that? Or do you mean, how do you connect an existing store to a PBS Server? I followed your instructions, but I eventually crashed all my VMs with an I/O error probably since I exceeded my VM Drive space. I had to clean things up...
