    Monitoring backups

    Hello, I'm trying to find a way to automate the backup monitoring with Zabbix. I added a backup script hook in PVE so every time a VM is backed up, the zabbix server is notified. This allow me to configure a trigger based on last backup date so there is an alert if a VM is not backed up for...

    PBS hardware requirements

    Hello, I'm looking for hardware to host two PBS servers. I read some posts where the author strongly suggest using only entreprise SSD drives. Even our prod still use HDD most of the time, SSD are still the exception in our infra, so buying SSD for storing backups appear very strange for me...

    Speed limit for remote sync

    Hello, I'm still trialing PBS and I may have found a deal breaker for our use case :(. Seem like there is no built-in speed limitation for the remote sync job.
