    SDN create VNet permission

    I just tried that to no avail, with or without propagation. Thank you for the suggestion though!

    SDN create VNet permission

    Let's say I create an SDN zone called "ExampleZone" with one VNet called "ExampleVNet". My goal is for a User "ExampleUser" to be able to create additional VNets in that zone. Going through the API hierarchy in the docs here he seems to need SDN.Audit and SDN.Allocate for the...

    notes-template for new backup jobs?

    As mentioned in the bug: I have no clue what I have been testing yesterday, but today everything is working exactly as expected. Leave the notes screen empty on the backup job, and the configuration in vzdump.conf will be observed on every node.

    notes-template for new backup jobs?

    I ran into this issue today too. Changed the default in /etc/vzdump.conf to {{guestname}} @ {{node}}, created a new backup job, found that the note on the backup read {{guestname}}. I left the note template intentionally empty on the job. If I do a manual backup of a VM, the notes correctly show...

    Deleting Snapshop not decreasing disk space in proxmox backup server

    I think I ran into that once and fixed it by removing backups that looked like they were still running but actually failed due to the disk being full. It would show a spinner in the content view (or you could check the GC log, it will show you where it fails) Once I deleted the offending...

    Prune UI and Prune schedule simulator don't match

    I'm trying to understand pruning, but I'm getting mixed results from my pbs 1.1-13 UI and the pbs prune simulator. Below is an example with a couple of weekly backups and a prune schedule with keep-last 3, and keep-monthly 2. To me the PBS simulator does what I expect from the docs: Keep the...

    Deleting Snapshop not decreasing disk space in proxmox backup server

    While the snapshot was deleted, the underlying data might be in use by other snapshots. Due to the deduplication PBS is employing the amount of disk space freed up by removing a backup is entirely depending on the overlap it had with other backups. On top of that it is wise to run a garbage...

    Verify too liberal / slow

    Thank you for the thorough response, the information is greatly appreciated. I have everything I need to come up with a backup/verify plan that's adequate to my different use cases. The main points to me are: 1) backups are verified even though a verify result is not always registered. This is...

    Verify too liberal / slow

    I'm getting confused now. While I 100% agree that it would be a bad idea to trust the remote's verification status, I don't see how verification is being handeled on PBS-B. I guess I have a couple of questions that might help me understand your statements. 1) What is meant when a backup is...

    Verify too liberal / slow

    @Hannes Laimer I'm trying to test like @Elliott Partridge but somehow there is still a verification job.Here's a screenshot of my last daily backup: I can't find the source of the verify task. 1) The verify jobs screen for my datastore is empty 2) Same for one level up 3) same for CLI 4)...

    Verify too liberal / slow

    I fail to see how you suggestions would help me. Wouldn't it just change the problem from one 6 hour verify daily to one 6x7=54 hour verify weekly? Or is the process smart enough to do chunk-verification-deduplication for a single run, just not for deduplication across multiple runs? On you...

    Verify too liberal / slow

    I have my PBS set up to do daily verifies, and re-verify set to 30 days. With a daily backup of several hundreds Gb of data that hardly changes, I was expecting this to be a good setup. However, I am facing multi hour verfies each days which seems surprising. The verify log shows plenty of...

    How do I connect PBS to PVE with api token

    Hi Fabian, tldr; I was holding it wrong because of wrong expectations I don't think I understand what you'd like to see/change in what I said. My code shows --username myvmhost@pbs\!myvmhost where the ! is escaped because of bash. That is how interpret your USER@REALM!TOKEN. Is that correct...

    How do I connect PBS to PVE with api token

    According to the documentation here at the bottom, it is best to use API Tokens to connect PBS to PVE as storage. I can't get that to work though. The steps I tried in order are: Add user myvmhost@pbs, enabled and never expiring using <somepass> Add apitoken for myvmhost@pbs with name...

    [SOLVED] How do I improve incremental ext4 FS backups?

    It looks like that solved the issue! Only thing I'm wondering is: why does it take 50 minutes to figure that out? Starting backup: host/shared/2021-03-19T12:16:22Z Client name: MyVMHost Starting backup protocol: Fri Mar 19 13:16:22 2021 Downloading previous manifest (Fri Mar 19 11:52:00 2021)...
