    One of two servers not updating

    The Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) can create files on the mounted NAS share, but it can't change their permissions using fchmod(). This happens often when using SMB/CIFS mounts for PBS storage because SMB doesn't fully support certain file system actions like changing file permissions or ownership...

    Restore without the Proxmox Backup Server

    To verify if this is a valid PBS snapshot archive, check what's inside the ZIP: unzip-l 2025-06-27T03_08_36Z-20250703T144411Z-z-1-001.zip If it contains files like: index.json drive-scsi0.img.fidx drive-scsi0.img.blob qemu-server.conf Then it is likely a repackaged PBS snapshot folder

    [SOLVED] Taking 40min to create a VM...

    Hi @Nodemansland , Based on your description, I can see that it is most likely due to the IO Delay. A healthy IO delay will be 0% at most times. If you are getting more than 0%, you might want to check on the latency between your node and the storage. If it is more than 1ms, you should upgrade...

    No, a full backup is not automatically performed after a successful incremental backup using a dirty bitmap; subsequent backups can remain incremental if the bitmap stays valid. However, if the dirty bitmap becomes invalid, as seen in the logs where it was cleared, a full backup will be performed.
