Hi Found these two links about the possibilities to calculate the size of backups. https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/real-size-of-diskspace-used-in-backups.102664/ https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/how-to-get-the-exactly-backup-size-in-proxmox-backup.93901/ Our challenge is to not use more...

Hi there as there are no replies possible on the announcement, I just would like to share here ;) I totally fell over the «there is support for squid» but just after starting with the update, saw that this is not "Enterprise Subscription" ready. Most probably would like to see that kind of...

Thank you, took me 10 seconds to find ;)

Thank you, the vm still was locked from the unsuccessful removal of the snapshot. needed to "qm unlock <vmid>". Now back to normal ops. Regards, happy weekend, Urs

Hello there Tried to do a snapshot on a large vm with 160G RAM including it, but was in a hurry. So I tried to stop it, but the host came into unsresponsive and needed to restartet. After that, the snapshot was still visible and while trying to delete, it ended after removing with: Removing...

The journal is very noisy, if I could filter out I'd post parts. cat ./usr/lib/systemd/system/zfs-mount.service [Unit] Description=Mount ZFS filesystems Documentation=man:zfs(8) DefaultDependencies=no After=systemd-udev-settle.service After=zfs-import.target After=systemd-remount-fs.service...

While searching for the same/a similar problem, I found this thread and it's still unanswered? My root is on ext4 on a M.2 SSD, the virtual machines are on a pool consisting of two mirrors with an encrypted zfs. The encryption key saved on the root as I am not worried about loss of the whole...

Like to (partially) answer to myself ;) So the tapes have expired, dunno if yesterday (Saturday) or today (Sunday), just have seen it now (on Sunday). Under «Content» the backup is still visible, I think it will disappear as soon as one (or the first) of the now retired tapes are getting...

Hello again We're running slowly out of tapes and are unsure how the retention has to be calculated Retention = 4 weeks Allocation = fri, 20:00h backup-jobs Starting with Fridays, full backup (needs two tapes, runs until Sunday morning) Starting with Sundays until Thursday = latest only So I...

Hello again Ok, they do not need to be reformatted, fine. And of course will the data on the tape invalid after starting to overwrite. But «expired» tapes will *always* be overwritten from the beginning, do they?

Sorry to bother… I did a short dig into documentation and the posts here, but wasn't able to find (excuse my impatience). We don't really understand the exact behavior of the retention. If the date for retention has arrived, what happens to the media/catridges? will the status in the...

Thank you again for the support Now, everything works as expected. Our settings: Media pool: Allocation friday 20:00h backup jobs: 100: Eject = No, Export = Yes, Latest only = No, Schedule = Fri 22:30 200: Eject = Yes, Export = No, Latest only = Yes, Schedule Sun - Wed 22:30 201: Eject = No...

Yes, this did work for us. If exported (not only ejected), that autoloader does not try to get the media back and started with a new tape cartridge.

ok, we have a single media pool (or one test pool and one prod) I see, allocation policy is the keyword we're have to look into. According to the manual, this should work: Create a new set when the specified Calendar Event triggers. I will try starting from this Friday and than report.

Hey there We are using pbs for some time to our full satisfaction. Some weeks ago we ordered a small tape autoloader and began to do offline backups. (1 drive, 8 slots, 3 marked as export slots). We were really happy how good and easy the setup of the autoloader was, congrats to the team...

Every type has a separate class (hard disk, SSD, SAS SSD) and for the new pool there would be a separate class too.

We are talking about ProxMox with Ceph (as this is a ProxMox forum), not a Ceph only storage cluster. Sorry, if this wasn't clear in the beginning. So there are two bridges (each 2x25 GbE LACP), one for the vm traffic (to the outside or in between the vm) and one for storage. So on the storage...

I know the principle of horizontal scaling ;-) Actually, I got 8 bays on every node. Using (historically) 2 for a pair of hard disk with its accompanying SSD for WAL/DB and six bays for SSD. We are moving out other bays with SATA SSD for more and larger SAS. Ending in 4 x SAS SSD per Node and...

Thank you guys, I just wanted to understand and perhaps getting a hint to some documentation or experiences. But feel free to rate my network. It won't feel hurt, neither do I. The servers are HPE and equipped with 512 G RAM, 32 Core EPYC. Data and storage networks are separated of course. This...

Is this «best guess», «best practice» or general recommendation? Based on time until completion? Best performance?
