I like proxmox backup server but budget only allows magnetic disks and raidz2. So especially verify and garbage collect procedures need a hell of a lot of time. For an 8 TB Backup space today verify needs 2 days and garbage collect needs 1 day. I think with verify there is not much i can do...

I think the opposite. If i run fstrim on an 80GB drive with only 20GB of data it will lead to 60GB changed data. If I run fstri again it will lead to another 60GB of trimmed data.

Aaah, Storage View, yes, that works, thanks and have a nice weekend

Hmm, let's look at scsi0 80 GB Disk. it constantly only has 20 GB in use and 60 GB free. So it looks strange that 40GB change within a day It is an ext3 filesystem. I checked all cronjobs and logs an i have no idea what si happening ...

No I cannot:-(

I attach the output as a file. Okay I see it is 123GB changed and 543GB unchanged. For me this still seems way to large,

Yes, we talk about the same menu. But I can not change the vm id on restore when the storage is on a proxmox backup server

Thanks Aaron, but I do not find this. Where can i see or select a backup in proxmox-ve ? PS: I am using proxmox backup server

Is there a way in proxmox Backup Server to restore an image backup to a new machine ? I would like e.g. to restore backup vm/100 to vm/101 ? In some situations it is impoortant to keep vm/100 up and running

We are still evaluating pbs Server and begin to like it more and more. One problem ist that on some Servers e.g. mailserver or lamp server the incremental size ist unbevlievable high. An incremental after 24 hours is about 50% of the initial Backup size. But with a find-command run i find only...

I have a Mailserver with 500GB of E-Mails in 40 Mio Files in Maildir Format. When I backup the Mailserver with traditional tar/amanda it takes around 35 Minutes to do an incremental file backup the Server When I backup the server with proxmox backup client it takes hours to backup the...

Hi, how realistic is it to have a proxmox-backup-client for windows in the next months ? Is someone working on that ? Would that be an easy or complicated task ? I would like to have file Backups of windows vms in addition to image Backups.

Hi there, when running backups on vms which have qemu-guest-agent enabled the vms will regularly crash. This seems to be a well known problem with qemu guest agent which is described like this: When VM backup is invoked, Qemu agent freezes the file systems, so no single change will be made...

Hi, today i removed my former proxmox-backup-server (vm) and changed the clients to make their host-backups with proxmox-backup-client to a newly installed proxmox backup server (hardware). The Backup of the 50GB Filesystem of the client finishes in 2 Minutes. I am absolutely sure this is...

Hi, i am thinking about implementing some nagios checks for the proxmox backup server. I would like to check that the last datastore verify was successfull and not older x days Also I would like to check that the last Garbage Collection and Pruge was successfull Also maybe that the last file...

Thanks, the parameter backup-id is indeed accepted but strange things happen. When i execute a backup with: proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ --backup-id "lb01.domainname" the backup is done but it is never shown in the datastore in the webinterface. Maybe the dot is an illegal character ?

I just tested proxmox-backup-client on a client named web1 and i noticed that the name of the backup in the datastore was "web1". Since I have many web1 i wonder how I could give the backup set a more descriptive name ?

Hi, i am just evaluating proxmox backup server and I am really impressed. But how can i schedule client-file backups from the server so that for example only 2 or 3 backups run at the same time ? Lets say i have 80 vms to backup and my resources like cpu or disk or network only allow for 3...

Hi, i would like to retrieve ceph read/write statistics per rbd image on my proxmox cluster. I am trying to configure the admin socket for client.libvirt like in this url http://docs.ceph.com/docs/luminous/rbd/libvirt/#configuring-ceph but I never manage to get the admin sockets created. Did...

Thanks for clarifying, you convinced me :-)
