*sad ZFS noises* :D If you have the infrastructure to run Ceph in a serious manner thats a great alternative tho! @t.lamprecht Just booted into 5.13 on my workstation, running PVE & PBS together. So far, nothing explodes. :D ZFS also allows me to upgrade my pools to use the new 2.1 dRAID:

@alexskysilk If that is still relevant for you, I just discovered ZFS 2.1 in the pvetest repository.

As far as I know the GUI cannot provide this functionality. But using the Proxmox Backup Client you can browse and extract files from an encrypted backup and even mount it directly as a (read-only) filesystem. https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/how-to-mount-encrypted-backup.80354/ discusses this...

Mostly Intel SSDSC2BB480G6, 480GB DC SSDs. Some Crucial CT2000BX500SSD1, 2TB Consumer SSD. Happens with both of those.

Can confirm. Since the upgrade to 7.0, the proxmox host is not crashing and the VM does no longer get killed by OOM. But the VM freezes very easily on "heavy" IO like a multi-gigabyte download of a file. The VM Storage is separated from the OS install, different ZFS pools, all SSD.

You can add your second PBS on your PVE servers (ideally using a readonly user for security) and restore directly from the second PBS. Or you can create a sync job on your first PBS that syncs from the second PBS, which essentially syncs back all your stuff.

That is a bit of an understatement imho. Those numbers are pretty amazing! While it still may not utilize the full potential of the underlying storage, if I can get a 2x or 3x faster restore on the same hardware, I'll take it! :D At restore speeds beyond 1GB/s the network would become the...

@tuxis is offering PBS as a Service, so I assume they found some way to scale-out PBS. Maybe they can help?

To prevent confusion: @SINOS is my account at work, this is my private account. Did you check if there was any other job running on PBS during the timeouts? Like a GC or Verify Task? I experienced massive problems when running GC and backups in parallel (on HDDs though) - changing the GC...

In that case you could let them store backups in the same datastore without issues.

You actually could save to different PBSes and sync them by using different datastores for each PVE instance. And if you backup different VMs (not the same VM on both PBSes), the backups should not "collide" in any way, whatsoever.

No. Once synced, it's independent. Deletes / Prunes from the local PBS do not get synced to the remote PBS. The remote PBS can be configured with it's own Pruning schedules, though.

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/07/a-deep-dive-into-openzfs-2-1s-new-distributed-raid-topology/ Wurde schon vor einer Weile released, aber leider noch nicht in den PVE Repos.

Immutable Backups stehen ja auf der Roadmap für PBS, da kommt vielleicht noch was Vergleichbares. Verschlüsselung ist ja kein Problem bei PBS und einen S3 Bucket könnte man ja als Datastore mounten und PBS dann synchronisieren lassen. Will Veeam nicht abwerten oder so, habe es selbst (noch) im...

Ende des Jahres kommen bei mir frische Kisten für PBS ins Haus, bin da noch innerlich am zögern welches Pool Setup es wird. Ursprüngliche Idee war auch striped mirrors (RAID-10) und fertig, aber... da kommt dann doch der Geiz und man überlegt... 8x 10TB werden drin stecken. Vielleicht ein...

Oooooof. Wegsichern, solange es noch irgendwie geht. :eek: Einen weiteren Resilver überleben die Teile eventuell nicht mehr. Kamen die alle aus der selben Charge oder wie kommts, dass die fast alle auf einmal die Biege machen?

Da fehlt das vorangehende / beim mountpoint: /mnt/pve/SSD840 Das lässt sich sicher aus einer Live Umgebung heraus reparieren. Die Storage Konfiguration kann man vollständig über die Web UI erledigen, da braucht man eigentlich nicht selbst in die fstab fassen. Den VMs sollte es gut gehen, da die...

In general, you better have a bit too many PGs than too few. 32 is definitely too few if you are going to fill the pool to that extent. The autoscaler does only trigger when the PG count is wrong by a factor of 3 or more, so there should not be relied on when the pool is not actively used yet...

You can do that by installing a second PBS server that syncs its datastore(s) from the first one. Yes, but a completely separate offsite PBS server would be a more reliable and secure approach imho.

Yeah, +1 for DarkMode on PVE, PBS, PMG! DiscordDark already looks kinda great, but something more native that doesn't "break" on every little update would be supreme.
