No, once I created an automated backup this task doesn't removes old ones when proxmox raises to their max amount. I think it would be any better to add a checkbox in backup GUI called "Remove old backups" that will be add key "--remove 1" inside a task in vzdump.cron
It's very odd solution. We need to create the additional cron tasks. For what? But default vzdump.cron has similar feature that works. Just read my post above. As a proof I attach the content of my vzdump.cron file:
0 21 * * * root vzdump 103 102 --node YMTAQ-SV-HV04 --quiet 1...
I have found a solution. It's so simply. Once you created a backup task you have to open file "/etc/pve/vzdump.cron" then find your task. It's looks like "1 2 3 * * --storage NFS --quiet 1 --notification" and etc. Just add "--remove 1" key in your task. By default it's defined as 0.This scheme...
Hello! I have an proxmox machine with 3 VM (Terminal Server, File Server and Domain Controller 2). The backups worked properly till last week. Now during backup of TS I got an error:
()
INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 100 --compress lzo --storage NFS --remove 0 --node OPTIM-SV-HV02 --mode...
I have different versions (from 4.4-18 to 5.0-30) and they have the same situation. Erlier it worked properly but it started about 3 month ago.
Log for example:
INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 102 --mailnotification failure --fullbackup 1 --maxfiles 3 --remove 1 --storage RAID --quiet 1...
Hello! I have a problem on all 25 servers with Proxmox. When I set "Failure notifications" to "Always" then I get letters in any case. But when it's set up to "On failure only" then I didn't get any letter neither when backup is done properly nor it's failed. Anyone knows what can I do with it...
It doesn't work. Old backups are not being deleted. This feature just defines max amount of dump files. I went in file vzdump.conf and added in every string that corresponds to backup record key "--remove 1". That works.
I tried them both. There was "Linux Pam standard authentication". Server had been working for a long time (several years) but a few days ago it happend. I tried to choose Realm but it brought no success.
Hello! I have a problem on my Proxmox. Few days ago I lost the ability to get at web interface. Proxmox tells me that login or password is incorrect. But if I try to connect using ssh - it works. What should i do? I'd greatly appreciate.
