I'd test that portion, as PBS relies on a POSIX with last access time for "touching" chunks to check which chunks can be "expired" Rather setup a 2nd off provider/site with sync jobs pulling the backups for 2nd *copy*

Perhaps the installer GUI enforces that (which also has another issue, like forcing same size disks instead of using the smallest.. but that is a different issue) A RAIDZ3 with 4 disks are like having a 4way mirror, as in both cases you can loose 3xdisks and should function... just the RAIDZ3...

Yeah, was (opportunistically) wondering asking, but after a month, as my limited space on the NFS for the vzdumps only really allowed for 3 dumps ( daily, weekly and a monthly) the PBS storage was already more "complete" compared to the vzdumps - just it would've been nice "pre-seed" it with...

Don't yet see anything on the roadmap, and was wondering if there is a Influxdb metrics feed like for PVE?

Ah ! Explains, thank you! Missed that :facepalm: Thank you!

I'm busy syncing a mass number of snapshots to a new PBS, and it seems that the destination (that initiated the sync job) doesn't seem to apply the filter to the inbound traffic, but when I add this to the source, it does seem to apply and limit the outbound traffic. I initially thought it was...

Thank you. Looking at the 2.1 group filters, the docs aren't clear whether I can have multiples group filter per sync job, ie. I want to sync vm/1, ct/23, vm/456, ct/573 and ct/123456 only, so I guess I have to create 5 sync jobs, each with a specific group filter? (unless I'm into creating a...

if you are on ZFS volumes (not .raw), (and you have FSTRIM'd the data inside the VM) then zrep/syncoid is also and option to only sync differences (In theory the whole node's ZFS storage could be cloned that way - just not that on the rpool ;) )

NFS is not the fastest of fast, and I don't guess you are using PBS (ProxMox Backup server) on NFS, or you? if so then you are totally using the wrong setup. If you are using ProxMox with NFS as storage that you did the vzdump to: Well, *my* experience in a big cloud provider's NFS backup...

Do PBS have equivalent of vzdump hooks somewhere?

I know this would be technically possible as it's basically a selective sync job, followed by a prune, followed by a GC 24:05 later. The question is if there is a tool or procedure/method implementing it yet, and if not, any pointers? Reason: I'm wanting to move historical backup snaphots to a...

Seems this is working as I describe I want to do above, with the added sync job (from both) to a remote PBS

put in a proxy that will filter the URLs or only allow access from specific remote hosts?

Let me just understand something w.r.t. this: *IF* I turned off atime (ie. atime=off), then my GC "should" delete all chunks older than 24H as no atime would be updated during the GC marking phase, thus my backups older than 24Hours that I wanted to keep, will be corrupted, correct?

I'm wondering if I'm the only person looking for such a feature or not: The requirement is that some critical clients have longer data retention and extra offsite backup requirements, so I was hoping to find a quick fix to setup a remote PBS that will sync only those selective VMID groups from...

you did check the `.chunks` directory?

You mean other than a failed disk: - ZFS proper redundancy: replace disk, datastore "intact" - All other *filesystems*: restore datastore from elsewhere - LVM/mdraid: okay, replace disk, filesystems on top ok but now you need a separate filesystem on top, and you have two sets of...

Good day, is a certain environment I have a challenge that I need to push a PVE clusters backups to two PBS servers, but to split the backups, ie. PVE1 & PVE2 -> PBS-A, PVE3& PVE4 -> PBS-B. I might also need to (if things change for balancing reasons) change it to PVE1/2/3 -> PBS-A and only...

I would love to see you setting up simulated-tape blobs which could be streamed/sent to these Glacier/CloudArchive (like OVH's https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-gb/public-cloud/cloud-archive/#how-to ) solutions. That way it might be "simpler" to know the "tapes"/blobs to be pulled (ie. to be...

Good day, I do have quite a bit of historical backups on NFS, and would've liked to do a mass import/conversion from those to the PBS server/service as we have switched to the PBS since and would like to remove the NFS storage. As I don't see anything like that in the documentation and the...
