    Backup job causes PVE to machine to reboot

    From your post I guess that you've already checked the logs and they don't contain a hint. As you suspect that a lack of free local storage may be the cause, you can write a script which in a loop logs to a file the amount of free space and possibly which directory consumes how much. Then from...

    @USER372214 , there's a (short) thread about it. I don't want to paraphrase (and inadvertently distort) a Proxmox Staff Member's post, so I'm just sharing the link to it: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/pdm-migration-how-is-the-traffic-going.176109/

    Seagate Exos X16 not detected

    Welcome, @consumebees If you command sg_start --start /dev/sda sg_start --start /dev/sdb (possibly with additional options (see man sg_start)) do the drives and smartctl behave better? If your system has no sg_start then install sg3-utils package.

    smartd duplicating devices with trailing commas (e.g., /dev/sda and /dev/sda,) despite manual config

    Hi, @dastrix80 . There was a similar bug in smartmontools, but according to the bugreport it was fixed in version 6.6-1 of smartmontools six years ago. So unless you have such an old version in your PVE (very unlikely), that shouldn't be that...

    IO Pressure Stall issue after upgrade to 9.1

    Welcome, @Gabriele_Lvi . I'm not stating that your issue was also present at PVE 8,, but as far as I remember from the forum posts, the graphs in PVE 9 are more "spiky" than in PVE 8 because they are prepared other way than they used to be in PVE 8. So maybe the issue was less "visible" in PVE...

    How to Troubleshoot Regular Backup Failures?

    Welcome to the Forum, @Eruanantion . Unless your RAM is of ECC type it can also be the culprit. You can also try verifying the backups again. I have seen situations where next verification succeeds.

    Yes. As a hint you can use this thread: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/offsite-backup-to-external-usb-drive-possible.173374/ The question there is a little different but the idea is similar.
