backup

Hi Everyone, I installed Veeam 13.1 on Windows Server 2022 without joining an AD domain and in an environment without internet access. I used IP addresses when adding the PVE9.2, but when I deployed the workers, the installation failed with the error “Veeam Updater is unavailable.” Later, I...

Hi all, Disclosure first: I am the author of the tool below, and it is open source. I run PBS on a dedicated box at home. It does its job in twenty minutes a night and sits idle the rest of the day, so I wanted it powered off between backups. PVE's own scheduler cannot do that on its own: the...

I have backup job of all VMs (3 VMs of 120+ are excluded due to specific reasons) in 9-node PVE 9.2 cluster I have rebalance turned on: Sometimes there is issue that backup starts and also rebalancing thinks that there's a time to rebalance VM. As the backup job does one by one VM backup of...

Problem 1: Error on Proxmox -> CT -> Backup -> Backup Now -> Mode: Suspend INFO: rsync: chown "/mnt/pve/ovh-nfs-node02/dump/vzdump-lxc-666-2018_03_27-05_52_04.tmp/." failed: Operation not permitted (1) Version: Proxmox 9.2.3. Storage: OVH Dedicated Server Backup Storage. NFS Mounted with...

I am very happy to have finally discovered the "new" (to me) CT change detection modes for backup (see https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/pbs-client-change-detection-mode.150538/). This has vastly decreased my ~4TB file server backup from 7 hours to a few minutes. I have a question that may be...

Hello Proxmox Forum, Is a slow vzdump backupjob able to trigger watchdog? I had some unknown reboot today at 07:38 on a customers system: - 07:35:34 vzdump-Start (Ziel: langsames NFS) - 07:38:24 pve-ha-crm: loop took too long (33s) - 07:38:36 pve-ha-lrm: loop took too long (79s) + cfs-lock...

Hallo, Ich habe Proxmox VE 9.1.1 auf meinem mini PC laufen. Auf dem Gerät läuft ein Container der jeden Tag um 23 uhr ein Backup fahren soll. Das ist aber die letzten Tage nicht passiert also wollte ich das ganze mal Manuel anstoßen um zu prüfen da los ist. Dabei hab ich folgende Fehlermeldung...

Hello Everyone, apart from the S3 object storage and internal storage media (with ext4/xfs or ZFS) mentioned in the PBS documentation, what types of storage are supported as backing storage for PBS datastores? Specifically, I am referring to network storage such as a Synology NAS...

Hallo Zusammen, seit 3 Tagen läuft mein Proxmox Cluster mehr oder weniger. Gestern hatte ich das altbekannte Intel e1000 Problem. Das konnte behoben werden. Gestern Abend war mir schon aufgefallen, dass es beim PBS Backup nicht VMs richtig gesichert hat und scheint eine Migration während des...

Hello, is it easily possible to upgrade our existing 8.4 installation to a specific 9.x version? Our Backupvendor only fully supports 9.0, says "basic functionality" is offered with 9.1 and basically does not support 9.2 right now. Since the development has been slow on the Backup side, my...

My only point here is that the term “snapshot” has different meanings, heavily depending on the contextual point-of-view: PVE VM snapshot This is the native Proxmox function. It freezes the current status of a VM. This state can be “unfrozen” later to restore this very status via “rollback”...

Our team has a 3 nodes Proxmox cluster. Every night we backup all of the VMs. Every 2-3 days the nightly backup completely freezes one of the nodes. Sometimes the freezing can be stopped by stopping the backup job from another node, but complete freezing is the usual, in that case the Backup...

Hello, I have a large proxmox cluster but with only three nodes (three physical hosts that run hundreds of VMs). I have a PBS and I would really love to take backups of ALL my VMs nightly. Unfortunately, I can only run the backups in a relatively short period of time (from 23:00 to 06:00) so...

We recently converted from VMware and are wondering if anyone else here is having issues backing up offline VMs with Veeam BR? Do you have a recommendation for a workaround other than powering those VMs manually during the backup schedule? When the VM is offline, we are seeing nothing...

Hy zusammen. Seit ca. 2 Wochen kann ich kein Backup mehr auf den Proxmox Backup Server machen, es schlägt immer wieder fehl mit der Meldung: ERROR: backup write data failed: command error: write_data upload error: pipelined request failed: detected chunk with wrong digest PBS: Version 4.1.10...

I have a Proxmox VE 9.1 production environment with 2 nodes and 1 qdevice (for quorum) using shared NFS storage. During snapshot or backup operations, VMs (especially Windows) become completely unresponsive: VM freezes completely Loses network connectivity (no ping) Console is frozen VM...

Hi all, I'm curious how you handle the 'Freeze/thaw guest filesystems on backup for consistency' option in Qemu Agent. Do you generally keep it enabled by default? In which scenarios do you explicitly disable it (e.g. high I/O VMs or databases)? Have you had any issues with fsfreeze (timeouts...

I’m seeing extremely poor performance when restoring files from a pxar archive with proxmox-backup-client catalog shell and restore-selected. Environment Client package: proxmox-backup-client 4.1.5-1 Installed from: http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pbs-client trixie/main Backup server...

Hello Proxmox Community, I'm currently running a virtual tape library (Quadstor VTL, extended with deduplication) in my homelab, primarily for personal use with Bacula. I'm now looking into expanding my backup solution, or potentially migrating, to Proxmox Backup Server (PBS). I'm aware that...

Hello again helpful community. Today I have a rather easy question for you all! I am trying to restore a VM on a newly installed instance of PVE 9.1.7, however before I can restore it I need to copy over the backup files (45GB). The problem is that ProxMox is installed on a 120GB SSD, leaving...
