I'm syncing a remote from an offsite with a remote cloud location. It shows under administration roughly 660 K and 20 K in. I think the network connection is atleast 1gbp. Is there any method to check how long it's taking to sync? It seems to be taking a long time. Over a day for about 1.7 to 2...

Really odd, I read somewhere and initiated zfs mount -a it dismounted and remounted some old datasets, but it brought me back to my original datasets. The new ones I was restoring from a backup reset to an old one though.

I didn't see anything weird inside the syslog related to ZFS storage. Main error is tnot being able to find_mounted_device failed. The store can't be found Some read fs info on the store failed -ENONENT: No such file or directory. zpool status ONLINE Scrub in process since this morning, no read...

I have my proxmox backup server automated to backup. The remote disk was full and encountered an error with the backup. After restarting the proxmox backup server my datastore files are missing. I verified that the /etc/proxmox-backup/datastore.cfg paths are correct. I have them stored on...

I was syncing a PBS remote with a local one. I was trying to repopulate a second namespace with verified and working backups. The previous namespace had a few error. the 7th backup and the 25th have spinning circles in the size like the job is still trying to complete and the others are...

I'll take a look, but I have weekly scrubs going on. I have new disks put in at one place and on a remote server. It's very unlikely a failing disk at two locations. I did a scrub on the 2nd and 4th of April without any errors.

I tried, it doesn't look like it's replacing the bad chunks. Also when I run a verify on the failed backup it just stalls for hours. I don't think it's normal. I've upgraded to the latest PBS 2.4-1 too. Anymore thoughts? it's also weird why some have failed and others don. If I can just delete...

Somehow one of the failed verify backups fixed on one PBS. Do you know if I can delete one of the backups and resync it will fill in the missing one if I have it on another proxmox backup server? Thank you so much.

I have a Proxmox Backup Server in two locations A and B. One on site which makes a nightly backup. That gets synced to a remote site. The remote site gets synced offsite. However, in order to be more redundant I have also begun syncing the backups from location A to location B from the remote...

Are they encrypted by default? Is there anything I need to do to encrypt or decrypt them aside from the encryption key? How secure is it? I can see a partial key when I hover over the VM -> Encryption. I also have one of my initial VMs from 2020 which is unencrypted, is there any way to go back...

Hello Lukas, I was just going back over this thread. In order to get my datastore onto some type of cloud object storage, would you recommend rclone? Or restic? I'd prefer Restic because it has snapshots, chunking, integrity checks and security. I'm just wondering if it takes considerably longer...

Curious as to whether this has worked out? Would the recommendation to rclone the PBS store? Since it's already split into chunks and keep the folders intact or to use Restic on top of rclone in order to maintain security? I've been running restic but it seems to run on forever, even after...

Would using something like restic be redundant to backup PBS datastore somewhere else? I like restic for it's ability to encrypt, chunk and resume. Rclone could doesn't usually have the ability to resume files if the transfer isn't complete. Any recommendations? This is an extra fail safe. I'm...

@Younex What method did you use to move the Proxmox Backup Server Datastore to another server?

Is there any reliable method to find out what the sync progress is of a current sync job? I know I can find out how long it took the overall sync under Status or how long it's been running. Is there a way to find out what percentage has been completed or how much is left to go? an Estimated time...

@Dunuin I'm not sure exactly how to tell, but in all likelihood is that the drives are SMR. They're SATA, WD Passport drives. Somewhat slower than the previous generation even. A few years ago, the external 2.5" drives were around 5400 to 5900 RPM. These others are showing 4800 RPM. I'm doing...

Probably not ideal, but currently experimenting with a local PBS with an External Drive setup as a Zpool. Everything works fine, but when I zfs send and zfs recv I start to get a lot of I/O errors. If I use it as a backup only it seems to be okay. This only occurs with a new WD Passport Ultra...

It's only about 600GB. I'm running rsync instead and it should finish fairly quickly. The localhost sync was killing the I/O.

Hello everybody, What is the best method to migrate old backup data from external drive to new external or internal drive for backups? For example, I have datastore01 on an ageing drive. I want to add a new drive and migrate the datastore01 to datastore02 and continue backups from there...

Is there an error or conflict if garbage collection, verification and or a sync job running at the same time on the same datastore? Would this cause errors? Is there a recommended procedure as to which should go first?
