In normal operation of proxmox without administrative intervention apart from start/stop/replicate/move from the GUI, there is in fact to real risk of skipping a single backup, and even than it would not really be that bad. IF aministrative manipulation takes place at the lower level, the...

As alread said, if you fear corruption because of undetected changes, the safe way is to have an option to skip the backup of unstarted VMs. This garanties integrity. At most a backup could be missing, if special manual changes occur, but in this case the admin just has to force a backup for...

That is error prone. PBS should be able to efficiently backup unchanged, switched of VMs and containers. Unfortunately PBS is extremly bad in handling these cases, even though there are the simpliest cases for most other backup systems. So we have three problem: 1) Extremly slow backup of large...

That means that PBS reads the whole disk of templates very time too?

How does PBS backup templates? Is there any special handling of them? They also do not get started and should be read every backup, unless they have been modified (by converting back to normal vm, starting and reconverting to template). The option to skip VMs not started after the last backup...

1) It's true, that someone could modify the underlying storage. A malicious person can always corrupt data, but this is not the case in normal operation. An option to keep bitmaps, would be a good thing. 2) Another solution would be, that there is an option for PBS to skip backups of VMs, which...

Proxmox should now whether the VM has been switched on or not. If it keeps off all the time, PBS should not reread the whole disk everytime.

Yes, and since it used the wrong internet connection, as I found out, it was limited to 40 Mbit/s = 5 MB/s. So everything as expected. Thanks.

I have a remote PBS which syncs a local PBS. The transferrate from the GUI is almost exatly 5MB/s. Is there any implicit limit at 5MB/s or how can this constant transferrate be explained?

Please integrate this great solution into proxmox standard, dear dev team. It is a pain to paste passwords or URLs into VMs otherwise.

Bei mehreren Serversion ist mandos für Vollverschlüsselung und Reboot-Fähigkeit eine Variante, die ich schon erfolgreich ausprobiert habe. https://www.recompile.se/mandos

Is it possible to use the proxmox host with DHCP, so it could be moved without configuration to different networks? The internal VM-guest network should have a private address with masquerade for internet access.

No. At some point I gave up and didn't try it again.

Yes, but even if i had no ssh tunnel, it could happen that a connections breaks and a retry is necessary from the client. The sync job doesn't seem to retry but abort at first failure.

I have a SSH tunnel from the Remote PBS port 8008 to the local PBS port 8007. The Remote PBS should sync the backups from the local PBS via this tunnel. However the sync jobs breaks after 30-120 min with the following error message: error trying to connect: error connecting to...

I tried to import the LibreELEC ova into proxmox and it starts, displayes the LibreELEC logo but then reboots. For the graphics card I used VirtIO-GPU 256MB or 512MB. Any suggestions how to the it running?

The promox-backup-client list or prune commandos outputs lists with fancy ascii graphics, which consumes unnecessary space in a terminal and makes it difficult to read, search and parse for further processing. It is also very uncommon for linux commandos doing this type of formatting and I can...

Why should ZFS be avoided? If it comes to data integrity and realiability, it is much better than ext4, especially guarding aganst long time bit rot, where also the verification task of the backup cannot help. It only can detect, that data is corrept in a chunk, but it this chunk is used in...

Currently it is not possible to filter tasks by backup group or description. Filtering by description would suffice, as the backup group is mentioned there. Could you please add this possibility?
