Hello! we upgraded two of our PBS servers from 2.x to the current version 3.1.4 and while doing that we encountered an issue. Both servers are identical except that server 1 uses an additional 10G network card while server 2 got a 40G Intel card (XL710-BM2). The first server upgraded without...

Okay, i will look into that again if i encounter it again but i did not see anything that would lead me to what point exactly he's trying to write. The part that confuses me here was the entry "".. Anyways, because my initial question was answered and it works by now somewhat i will see this...

Thank you for your help so far! With the newer version i was able to successfully backup and restore my files onto the ubuntu machine. I have one last question regarding an error that i encountered. When i try to restore it directly at root-level i see the following: Error: error extracting...

Hi Chris, thank you for your reply! Indeed i am using client Version 2.4.3, which was the version that got installed with using the bullseye-repositories. I was unable to install the client using the bookworm-repo earlier because of some unmet dependencies that i was unable to solve. Would the...

Hello! i am currently experimenting around with the backup client. In short i am trying to find a suitable way to backup servers from root-level that are NOT on PVE (means bare metal servers, not VMs.) I managed to install the backup client on my ubuntu 22.04 test system without problems and...

Hi! quick question regarding backup protection inside the PBS: Is there a way to automatically schedule that a specific amount of backups will be marked with the protection flag automatically (for example "set the 2 most recent backups as protected" and automatically set/remove the flag when new...

Hi, i tried using a different IP for the second mount but the same issue is present. For some reason according to df -h is the storage even mounted multiple times with the same size which stor2 should be. (the first one is supposed to be around 8 TB) 10.10.10.222:/mnt/drbd1 12T 0 12T...

Hi! i am currently a bit lost while trying to get a storage running. In my current setup i am trying to add two NFS storages to my cluster that both reside on the same server runnign with DRBD. The storage.cfg is definetely correct pointing to the right exports: Stor1 - export /mnt/drbd0...

Hi Chris! thank you so much for the hint with the firewall! I created a new allow rule and now everything works as it should. So it was as i thought initially something simple in the end. Thank you and best regards!

Hi! i am running a cluster with multiple PVE nodes (all on Ver 7.4) but i am currently facing an issue with one of them. So now i would like to ask you for any hints, maybe i just simply overlooked something silly. I just recently joined two more nodes into the cluster, which worked without any...

Hi everyone! I am currently trying to understand the backup process on PVE hosts a bit more because i noticed a small issue lately that i am trying to resolve on my host. Basically i noticed my backup jobs for my LXC containers stopped working a while ago because it apparently runs out of space...

Hello Moyad! thank you for your response! I can confirm that the migration itself worked without problems. There were no errors that occured and the VM itself also worked after the migration. I tried to move another VM (in the same cluster) and got the same error messages so it was not only...

Hello! While trying to migrate one of my VMs in our cluster i noticed some unusual outputs from the task viewer: I've migrated a few vms before but never actually saw something like that before. I checked the most common PVE services but they all seem to work fine. I would also like to...

Thank you for the response Victor! I guess that your method is the best i can do in this case. Thanks for that! I would not want to mess with any index files simply because i am not experienced enough with that so i might give that a pass. Still, would be interesting to know if that would work.

Hello! i had to edit some of my VMs and change their IDs because i accidently restored a wrong, old backup with an identical VM-ID. So i changed them to be unique which actually worked pretty well. But now i realized that with the changed IDs i cannot use my previously created backups on my PBS...

Hello! Is there a way inside the PBS or PVE to set a specific backup as "protected", so that it will for example excluded from pruning jobs etc.? If so: where can i set it? Thank you in advance for answers! Best regards

Hi fabian! Here's the restore log from the PVE as attachment. Edit: During the restore i noticed some steps taking especially long, for example: progress 26% (read 41875931136 bytes, zeroes = 5% (2306867200 bytes), duration 632 sec) progress 27% (read 43486543872 bytes, zeroes = 5%...

Thank you for your response! I was not aware of the benchmark tool but will definetely use that in the future. Thank you! So verification is definetely needed, no matter if the backup itself got verified on the PBS beforehand because the PVE checks for errors during the transport, correct? In...

Hello, while restoring a vm backup over the pbs i noticed that the restore took a huge amount of time, multiple hours in fact which would be catastrophic for a productive system that needs to be restored in case of sudden crashes. So i tried to look into the possible reasons as of why the...

Hi fabian and thank you for the quick reply! I actually meant restart because i noticed that graceful reloads did not help much last time. I will try to clarify next time what tasks are running in detail. Right now i assume that most of it results from the verify jobs that are scheduled during...
