    PBS backups failing and bringing down the PBS UI

    Thanks for sticking with me on this... The GC ran for 24 hours and then I tried to stop it but even that didn't do anything except an extra line in the task log indicating that it received a stop request. So I rebooted the PBS container but upon reboot another GC started immediately and has...

    PBS backups failing and bringing down the PBS UI

    I have a garbage collection running for the past 16 hours but it doesn't seem to be doing anything: Most of my other garbage collections have completed within 30 mins. Once this garbage collection finishes, I can test out a backup and see if it indicates anything.

    should i use hdd or ssd for Proxmox Backup Server?

    Yes, but Enterprise SSDs also cost about 10x the price of HDDs. I use NAS HDDs and backup everything on my NAS. I also use ZFS replication that makes a backup of everything on my NAS to a RAIDZ2 pool of used Entrerprise HDDs on a different machine. For my home system, the performance is more...

Yesterday I upgraded Proxmox frm 7.4.3 to 8 and also PBS from 2.4 to 3.0 but I still have all my backups failing as below. INFO: starting new...

    [SOLVED] Upgrading PBS from 2.4-2 to 3.0 in a LXC

    I have PBS installed in a LXC container and was wondering how strict the minimum 5GB space requirement is for the upgrade? Anyone out there who has upgraded PBS in a LXC container? Thanks.

    PBS backups failing

    Removed the local_lock=all option from the pbsDatastore nfs mount and the backups still work. I am back to where I started. Everything works as it did before the Nov 8 upgrade. The new upgrade that I did on Nov 29 has fixed everything back to how it was.

    PBS backups failing

    I wonder if I remount the NFS without the local_lock=all option --- will it still work. I'll test that after I backup all of my containers once as I have not had a backup since almost a month. :)

    PBS backups failing

    Thanks for your reply @fiona I can create/edit/delete files and folders from within the container. I tried this via ssh and from within the browser console. As for the setup not being supported, I understand that. Installing PBS in a container just seemed to be good in terms of separation of...

    PBS backups failing

    I have a Archlinux desktop which I backup to PBS as well and I removed the systemd automount for the pbsDatastore and manually mounted the share using local_lock=all option. I checked it and it was set correctly. But running a backup resulted in the same error. So it's not working from the CTs...
