    Process a second backup, or sync the first?

    Hey @hd-- sorry I just had a thought on reducing bandwidth. I know that you shouldn't backup to the same machine (i.e. PBS should be on a different machine to PVE) but wouldn't it be faster if I backed up to PBS on the same machine as PVE, then synced that to a PBS install on a different...

    User's home dir is owned by 'nobody' and cannot chown

    Ok seems this is a common issue and there are a few other threads so I believe Proxmox could benefit from adding some information to the support pages (I couldn't find anything). My fix was to create the CT like this (and in this exact order): Create the CT but dont start it Add your UID/GID...

    User's home dir is owned by 'nobody' and cannot chown

    Confirmation of the UID/GID working: root@actual:/home# id jayden uid=1000(jayden) gid=1000(jayden) groups=1000(jayden) Also, I have created a test file, on a mounted share then gone to the Proxmox host and can see that it was created by UID/GID 1000 so I believe that part is working.

    Tuxis launches free Proxmox Backup Server BETA service

    Okay :) I don't think English is your primary language so just wanted to let you know 'email address' is spelled incorrectly on your sign up form (it says "emailaddess" in the input box)

    Process a second backup, or sync the first?

    Hi With one PVE instance and two PBS servers I would like to understand the best way to great backups. I've included my assumptions below each one. Backup PVE to the first PBS server, then sync that backup to the second PBS server Pro: Less downtime on PVE guests Pro: Less resources needed...

    Using proxmox-backup-client in script as PVE's GUI does

    Oh I see, I'm unsure sorry since I just schedule those to run automatically via the GUI. Perhaps look here: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Backup_and_Restore#_examples

    Using proxmox-backup-client in script as PVE's GUI does

    It's not clear what you're asking. Are you trying to backup files that are not in Proxmox? Here is my bash script to backup my non-promox machine to PBS !/bin/bash export PBS_REPOSITORY=root@pam@192.168.1.123:8007:pbs # Update the IP address and datastore name export...

    CT Templates: Fedora 34 EOL and new Fedora 36?

    Hi Fedora 34 is going end-of-life this week and Fedora 36 has been released. Will Fedora 34 template be removed, and will 36 be added? I tried updating my templates and I'm still seeing 34 and 35. I converted to Fedora for v36 on the desktop and I absolutely love it so I'd like to try moving...

    Docker error while using rancher

    My Docker LXC contains these three lines at the bottom. Is yours the same? /etc/pve/lxc/114.conf lxc.apparmor.profile: unconfined lxc.cgroup.devices.allow: a lxc.cap.drop: P.S. I don't think the Proxmox team support or recommend docker in LXC. It can be problematic and it's usually recommended...

    Proxmox Backup Server 2.0 released!

    Works great! One more for those with a similar set up: Q: Can I upgrade without rebooting if I'm already running PVE7 bullseye on the same machine? A: No. I tried restarting the services manually but it wouldn't work until I did a full reboot.

    Proxmox Client usage

    Hi AraToken You asked about standalone clients (outside of Proxmox, e.g. bare metal). This is a bash script I use to backup my Proxmox host via a cron job. I use a similar version on my notebook computer too. I hope you find this useful. #!/bin/bash export...

    [SOLVED] PBS no longer working after upgrading host to PVE 7

    Thank you tom and t.lamprecht, I have marked the thread as resolved. Resolution: Issue is known and will be fixed in an upcoming update. It's also worth noting that no one should update to beta releases if they can't afford downtime of some (or all) functions. While I did read through the wiki...
