The Headline: I have managed to kick all 3 of my nodes from the cluster and wipe all configuration for both PVE and CEPH. This is bad. I have configuration backups, I just don't know how to use them. The longer story: Prior to this mishap, I had Proxmox installed on mirrored ZFS HDDs. I...

Ich suche eine Möglichkeit Datei Backups zu erstellen. Use-case: Meine Idealvorstellung wäre, wenn ich auf dem Proxmox Backup Server nicht nur LXC/VM-Container auswählen könnte, sondern auch Verzeichnisse (z.B. aus einem LXC Container). Für diese würden dann, genau so wie für meine container...

YES, I AM WELL AWARE THAT NEITHER IS SUPPORTED, pretty much nothing in my lab is ;), no need to tell me this 5 times. My own system, used only by me, if I break it or lose data, I won't come crying here, I promise. On some of my systems, I'm running PBS on the same host as PVE, and this works...

My backup target filled up. Using other backup software in this situation, I would typically invoke a prune or retention process (also called a zero-byte backup w/ subsequent retention) which would usually bring it back from the cliff. Then I could adjust my retention settings to avoid this in...

I've seen the documentation and also the estimator. I've also seen and heard on multiple threads here a difference for what that actually means. The documentation says this: keep-last = the last # of backup snapshots. Other, previously and older threads have stated that this means that if you...

When I create a backup job in the Datacenter view and choose the mode "Suspend", the "job Details" incorrectly show the job to be configured in "Snapshot" mode. Is this a bug in the web UI? This line in BackupJobDetail.js seems to be relevant :)

We moved the hardware we had on-hand to Proxmox a year ago and now looking ahead to what's next (Fine tuning, improve reliability, and best practices). This is for a small business of around 10 users with a small amount of data (1.5 TB). The data is mostly spreadsheets, documents, and Access...

I have a 3 node cluster with HA off. It runs pretty well and does as expected most of the time except when power goes out. Anytime the cluster has an unexpected power cycle or outage (like losing power to the office), when the systems come back online, Proxmox VE starts a surge of backups of a...
