backup

For a customer I'd like to create some kind of "personal" backup storage but I don' know how. In detail: I created two backup storages only for a single VM, #1 with 7 allowed backups and #2 with 4 allowed backups. Then I created two backup tasks for this VM, one which runs monday to saturday...

hi there. I have 2 CPD in different buildings, connected with 10Gb Fibber, 1 is the production the 2 is the backup disaster recovery. how could I replicate every x time from production CPD VM to the Disaster Recovery CPD ? Both configuration is similar, 3 servers and 1 SAN storage. thank you !

I have a VM backup that I want to restore, a .vma.lzo file. This file is huge because of an out-of-control process. Can I delete a dir from inside a .vma file and then restore the VM? Restoring the entire VM with all the unneeded data inside would take up way too much time.

Hello everybody, we have set up a cluster with 2 nodes, both are connected to our SAN via iSCSI. On the SAN a LUN was created which we mounted with multipath to the servers. The storage was then integrated as LVM and we installed some VMs on it. Now I wanted to test the backup. So I tried to...

Hallo, hoffentlich ist hier der richtige Bereich dafür. ich habe einen einzelnen PVE Server und habe seit kurzem massive Probleme beim erstellen von Backups. Bisher habe ich (klassisch) über die GUI ein vzdump Backup-Job (nächtlich) erstellt. Leider führt das in bestimmten Konstellationen zum...

Hi, I have 2 virtual machines with Windows 10. I have problems with choosing where to place backup of my virtual machines. When I select backup Proxmox want to save it to the disk "local" and not "smallStorage". "local" does not have enough space to store the backup, but "smallStorage" have...

Hi, I'm have a backup-job scheduled which will daily backup my system. Sometimes while running the backup, the system will spawn one arc_reclaim and lots of arc_prune processes. All of these processes will eat up the CPU time and cause the VMs which are still running to run into (timeout)...

Hi, until now I've used wbadmin to backup Windows machines (no matter if VM or on real hardware). But now I've setup a Proxmox test machine and I've found the integrated VM backup feature which looks very interesting to me. Did a short test with a Linux guest, which worked flawlessly. But I...

Hi. First of all, I´m very sorry if this question is borderline retarded or anything - I´m a complete beginner with anything that isn´t windows... So I hope you can be patient and explain it at my level ;) Second, I´m also not an english native, so please excuse any mistakes. I got my hands...

Good day, I have a cluster with 2 Nodes, I would like to know if it is possible (and if so please guide me in the direction) to backup my 2 nodes to each others' storage. I.e I want to Backup Node 1 on Node 1 Storage and Node 2 storage and vice versa. If that is not an option then I will...

Just looking for a bit of knowledge confirmation. I've been using vzdump to take nightly snapshot backups of my VMs. My only question here is that it seems like you cannot restore a snapshot backup to an already existing VM ID. You have to use qmrestore and give a new VM ID to be created. From...

Hello! Please help me. How to add new restored VM from backup dump to exist pool via CLI ? I need it to make auto tasks in Bamboo. THX!

Virtual Environment 5.4-6 Hi guys! I have issue about backups of LXC. I have LVM storage with LXC and when I make backup (for backups using NFS Storage) in "Snapshot mode" got some errors: In "Stop mode " it works fine:

But mounting the remote backup folder via fstab has one danger. If the remote system goes down, the remote folder won't be automounted again after the remote machine comes up again. So the backup will be dropped to the local folder which is used as the mount point. If this folder is on the...

Hi there, I currently have some VMs which are hosted on and run from a shared NFS share by the Proxmox hosts. I currently use Proxmox to backup (snapshot) these VMs back to the NFS share but this seems inefficient with the reads from NFS -> PVE host and writes back from PVE -> NFS host...

Hi guys, now that I'm comfortable with my VM setup, I want to explore monitoring solutions that will alert me via email/text on critical events such as a hard disk failing SMART tests, unexpected reboots/shutdowns on any VM or the Proxmox node itself, etc. Also, I want to buy an 8TB external and...

Hi, i use proxmox 5.4.6, and i would like to bet a backup of one VM but just the system, without /var/www Because the folder is to big. I don't find how to bet this backup ? Can someone help me ? TY
