yes, but not for backup ... spinning rust and tapes are still the king of backup and archive.

OK, this part was not explicit @fabian , and I would say it's rather important detail (but again, it's maybe me being dumb and blind to miss it). Side note, from further investigation: It seems that there is lot's of cpu overhead on compressing / decompressing data on the fly while doing...

Just to add, the CT 113, is a turnkey fileserver template based, that has a cron job that automatically updates packages, that is the only difference that is between each of those backups. Most recent backup job, can't even scroll through the window because there are so many lines about the...

So initial feedback is this: I tested you theory, and when I trigger the group verification of whole CT tree (image below) the PBS STILL tries to verify the whole snapshot - I'm right now an hour into it trying to verify the newest unverified snapshot - I would assume that it should try...

And this is what I meant by "enveloping different logic within switch case" - it could be made NOT fs agnostic. But I guess, Proxmox folk would need to weight customer benefit of performance vs extra work of implementing and maintaining this. And no, after 20 years of software engineering I'm...

Yes, you are absolutelly right. THOU, you (ie, operating system of proxmox) already knows what is the filesystem for underlying storage, because I select it from drop down in the gui - ZFS. There can be a separate logic per storage type, it's not that much complicated to encapsulate different...

So I'm in the same boat. Before implementing PBS for production, I deployed it in test cluster. Test LXC (4tb) takes 2 hours to backup, while nothing changed. The strange thing is that durign the 2 hour that takes the backup to finish, there isn't much of a disk activity on PBS or machine with...

Sorry Fabian, I've found exactly this answer in different topic. If admin would kindly delete this thread to not clog the forum it would be nice. BTW, thanks for rapid reply.

Admin, please delete - answer found in different topic.

Funnily enough I was googling for aws stuff and found my old topic ... so to the original detractors making "remarks" - I guess creation of PBS proven YOU wrong :*

Hi gentelmen: I'm running a tiny cluster with 4 nodes. On Saturday there was a failure and one node started to behave weird. To make ceph chug away I decided to delete monitor from it and just let everything go with its way. Unfortunately I've deleted monitor from wrong node ... and the I've...

Can somebody provide some explanation here: When using pveceph command to create osd with --bluestore = true. It does create 2 partitions on HDD. One of them is 100MB XFS, other one is reminder of the disk. Now without the it seems to work, but I'm not sure whenever it's using an actual...

fyi I've got same problem and I've got NO capital leters in host names (capital leters in host names don't exist anyway so why somebody would put them there) Edit: in my case for some reason /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts was NOT a symlink to /etc/pve/priv/known_hosts as it should.

Hi. Before somebody calls me silly ... I know that this trick shall not be done on production systems ... but I needed some of the features of 5.0 so I jumped the ship early. Anyway I've got 3 systems with proxmox 5 beta 1 & ceph runing as a small cluster and everything was ok. After some time...

Thanks @FastLaneJB, I was slowly thinking that nobody here understands real issues with backups :/ Anyway check out the backy2 I'm intrigued with it because I run everything on top of ceph and ceph -> S3 seems like a logical move. That's why I wanted somebody from team to look at it and maybe...

@remark thanks for you remark about being able to backup to anything that is mounted - if you would carefully read few words further you would understand that I had problem with stuff that is mounted because people tent to mess it up. Anyway thanks for you remark @remark If using setup as...

Hi, You may treat this it as a kinda feature request :) So I've got most of stuff at my workplace running on proxmox, but I've noticed that backup is somehow lacking. This is not meant as bitching topic - so no flames please. So main problem I've got is disaster recovery, right now backup only...

So, thanks for all the replies - it got me going the right way. I anybody ever looks for stuff like that, here is my dirty script: /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/mount-cephfs.service [Unit] Description=Mount cephsFS info /cephfs ConditionPathExists=/cephfs...

Thing is that @reboot will run at the point where console is initiated (level 6 when login prompt shows up) - while ceph services are actually still starting up. I've added ceph-mds@0 and you can see that one still being in state starting up (along with whole load of ceph-osd@0 services) I'll...

Hi, this is kinda trivial question, but I found usual scripts that should run at the end of level 6 init process but since proxmox and the rest of the world is mowing towards systemd it's all a bit messy to me and it seems that usual suspects don't get run as last ... Also I would like the run...
