I got it: if the datastore already exists, you need to set the token as owner of the datastore

Hi Chris. Following your suggestion I set PBS_PASSWORD_FILE and everything works if I insert the user password in the file. But it doesn't work if I insert a token instead of password (the token is associated with the user and has same role/path permissions). What am I doing wrong?

I'm running proxmox-backup-client directly on Proxmox Backup Server to back up a NAS share mounted via CIFS. Everything works fine if I run proxmox-backup-client using root user (root@pam@localhost) but this forces me to have to store the root password in an environment variable (PBS_PASSWORD)...

Now I get it. Thank you

If I use proxmox-backup-client to do a daily backup of a file, will I only have the latest version of the file in the datastore or is there a configuration that allows me to keep all versions of that file for the last week?

Thanks again @VictorSTS !

The iron has 3 NICs but after installation PBS shows 4 (!?!) This is what I see from PBS WebUI: And this is what I see from bash: ip -br a lo UNKNOWN 127.0.0.1/8 ::1/128 eno1 UP 192.168.10.102/24 ens259 DOWN eth2...

Thanks @VictorSTS !

To backup a QNAP/Synology share I was thinking of mounting this share via NFS on PBS server and running proxmox-backup-client on this server... can this work? Or is it better to mount the share as a PVE storage and then run proxmox-backup-client from there?

interesting... I hadn't thought about this yet, thanks!

This is a machine that I recovered to start using PBS so for now I don't want to spend too much money on it, but I understand that without SDD disks it is difficult... The situation would improve somewhat with 2 external 2TB SSD disks connected via USB ?

I need to install PBS on a server with these 4 HDDs: 2TB, 2TB, 1TB, 500GB I plan to use 2x2TB in ZFS RAID1 as S.O. and VM datastore and I would like to have some suggestions on how to use the other disks (perhaps I could dedicate the 1TB one to archiving files sent by "proxmox-backup-client"?)...

So no functional difference between the two configurations. Thanks @mira !

What is the difference between these two VLANs? To create the management VLAN I found HowTo's that guide you to directly edit the "/etc/network/interfaces" file from the console. But, for Proxmox, what is the difference compared to creating a VLAN from WebUI? Thanks!

You nailed it! I built the rack myself so I was sure the two devices connected directly, in fact I spent a whole day on the issue, thinking about what the problem could be but having no doubts about the wired connection between the two devices. But at this point I went to check, and... the...

One more thing: even if I get the management VLAN to work, how can I route the traffic of the VMs now running on the 192.16.3.0/24 subnet if the default gateway forwards the traffic on the tagged port 192.168.10.1? Sorry, you already explained this to me :( ... "All other Guest traffic are not...

Further reading the Proxmox admin guide I saw that I was doing things the wrong way. So I tried strictly following the official documentation to move Proxmox webGUi to a management VLAN. First on pfSense I created VLAN 10 (192.168.10.1 ) based on the DMZ interface (192.168.3.1) connected to...

I can't get the VLAN to work between pfSense DMZ and Proxmox ... The pfSense DMZ interface is directly connected to the Proxmox eth0 interface bridged with vmbr0. I already have some active servers using vmbr0, so to test the VLAN I did this: on pfSense I configured VLAN 10 on the DMZ...

@Dunuin @vesalius : thanks so much to both of you: I've read several posts in the forum, but nothing so clear! For testing I set up the configuration I used for my example: on vmbr0 (set with IP and gateway, as after standard Proxmox installation, but enabling the "VLAN aware" flag) I...

Not just the 'management interface', but all traffic has to go through that vlan ... so , no traffic segmentation. I expected to see at least 2 IP addresses configured: one for the untagged subnet to be used in the VMs and one for tagged subnet dedicated to accessing the administration...
