backup

My automated backups fail due to a free space error, but the disks are far from full. When I invoke a manual backup to the same storage, it works fine. Here are the emailed logs from both situations. The backups are heading to a PBS instance running as an unRAID container which has an external...

I have seen that in Proxmox Backup is an option to encrypt the backups. In proxmox itself i couldn't find a way to protect the containers and vms. LXCs are directorys if somone gets the backup it's easy to get all data stored in the backup archive. Is there a hidden option in Proxmox...

Hi. I'm playing with the prune simulator and I see something I don't understand. See the attached image. I am doing a daily backup (Monday to Sunday at 14:30). If I set 2 in the keep-hourly retention option, according to the documentation -and the simulator's help- I should keep backups for...

Hi all, I'm having issues backing up PVE to PBS, it's very slow and inconsistent write speed. To backup a VM with 300Gib disk takes over an hour. PVE - Lenovo P520 Xeon(R) W-2255 CPU 190 GiB DIMM DDR4 2666 MHz GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB Vms data are stored in ZFS 3x SSD SanDisk X300 DC Raidz1...

Hi, I've been running this proxmox server without any issues for over a year now, but after one night i decided to add a windows vm to my PBS, that night it seem to have ran four hours but managed to finish, but ever since my nightly backups run to an error, almost like there is not enough...

Hello, this is my first post, so please keep that in mind :). I was thinking about choosing an intel n100 to be running as my proxmox backup server. This PBS install should be connected via wireguard to my homenetwork where my Proxmox VE is standing and should running daily backups. I am...

So, nachdem ich jetzt einige Wochen Erfahrung mit Proxmox VE und PBS sammeln konnte, wird es Zeit das Thema Backup zu konsolidieren und auf eine dauerhafte Lösung umzustellen. Ich bitte um Review und Kommentare zu meinem Plan: In den Backup sollen: VMs und CTs eines Proxmox VE Clusters...

Hello there, I've got an issue with PBS 3.2 and PVE 8.2 VM Backups to SSHFS Storage. I'm experiencing continuous backup failures when backing up VMs to a remote SSHFS datastore. Container backups work fine (4GB backups complete successfully), but VM backups always fail with a broken pipe error...

I got the following error when backing up overnight: ERROR: Backup of VM 114 failed - PCI device '0000:15:00.0' already in use by VMID '107' Now I know why this is - just as it says, the PCI device (a GPU in this case), is already in use. However, I wonder what the recommended solution is? I...

So I was testing out my backups by deleting one of my LXCs and restoring it. I was able to restore my LXC from my NAS (NAS added as a store in PVE) via the Shell. Everything works except when it tried to perform a backup job to my NAS it failed. This is an unprivileged container. Before...

I've searched and searched, as well as gone round and round with AI's trying to troubleshoot the issue. No avail... Maybe I'm just not describing it correctly to get to the answers? I have multiple CT's setup in my Proxmox, one of which is Nextcloud, which obviously takes a while. I have the...

Hello everybody, Guys, I have a problem with the NVME of one of my servers, it is losing data and I'm already proceeding with the exchange, what brings me here is the fact that when the backup fails on a vm on this server the file "vm-xxx-fleece-0.qcow2" is not deleted and so the next backup...

Hi all, I'm relatively new to Proxmox, but an experienced Linux admin. I just built a small proxmox server for home. It's a 1TB ZFS mirror for root and most VM/CT images (I let the pve installer partition this) and a 4TB ZFS mirror for bulk data. I'm using that for files I share out using a...

Hi folks, i'm a bit of a noob with proxmox. i'm pulling my hair out with anything windows on proxmox.... i have a pxe boot win10 vm (he uses pxe boot in his setup, i do not) that a friend gave me and I was able to get it booted once. I dont remember my config. I have a brand new installation...
