backups

Hellu It would be great to have support for Gotify, so we can have push notifications for updates and/or backups instead of only emails. You only have to execute a `curl` command to push a message.

Hallo Com, ich würde gerne von Proxmox und meinen VM's / LXC's ein Backup erstellen, hierzu habe ich aber auf dem NUC selber keine Möglichkeit, auch gibt es kein NAS im Haus. Dafür habe ich aber einen Windows Server, der genug Speicherkapazität hat. Wie kann ich diesen nun unter Proxmox...

Hi, I have performed a new installation Proxmox 6.1 and I have problems with container backups. The Storage backups is NAS NFS, The problem also repeat in hdd local and external. only works when the container is off. Container off = Backups OK Container on = Backups Error Task viewer Backup...

Title says it. I can't be the only one with a list of VM/CT backups wishing that those backup files showed more than just the CT/VM# and DTG. Proxmox kinda assumes that the latest backup is always the desired backup to restore, but that's just not always the case. I typically only do backups...

Hello Everybody, I have setup a NFS Storage on a Snyology RS816 unit to be used with my Proxmox setup. I've setup daily nightly backups to that location. However, it looks like the storage place is getting full and doesn't free up space when I delete the vzdumps there. Is there something...

Hi every1, Last week, we changed our backups storage box from one named storagebox-vzdump to an other named storagebox-backups. We have a backup that's being made every day at 2.00 am and it's failing because can't find old storage box. I added a picture with the backup configuration. The...

Hello, I recently upgraded Proxmox from 5.3 to 6.0 and the process went very smoothly. So first of all I wanted to thank the team for making the upgrade so easy. However I may have discovered a bug tonight when rebooting my server to replace a failed disk in my ZFS pool. Upon coming back up...

I have upgraded to the latest Proxmox 5.4-5 and now i'm seeing tons of broken pipes on backups. This seemed to only happen after I upgraded to the 5.4 release. Seems like it starts to copy the data then dies. Any ideas on what is causing this? pve-manager/5.4-5/c6fdb264 (running kernel...

Hi, I have 2 issues with LXC containers backup 1. some times it's show even few days it's processing for some container but not completing the backup and I need to stop the task manually. 2. some containers got this error: command 'mount -o ro,noload /dev/rbd5 /mnt/vzsnap0//' failed: exit code...

Hello, I've seen this being asked, but I'm unclear on the actual answer. I want to know how Proxmox separates it's networks, if it does. Is all this done on the management interface: Backups, Shared Network Storage, Live Migrations? Is there anyway to assign different nics for each of these or...

For some reason, lately I've been unable to restore backups in Proxmox. It doesn't seem to be specific to a particular backup, and I've had the same problem with restoring any of them. I have plenty of space on the local system for the tmp directory - for example, the most recent backup I've...

It would be really nice if there was an option in the webinterface that allows to execute the backup jobs/tasks manually and not just on the schedule time. @proxmox team, this should not be hard to implement. Do you think that you can add this?

Hey all, Has anyone been using pve-zsync with "IO Thread" on a VirtIO SCSI drive successfully? Any thoughts or feedback before I try it? This would seem to have the best of all worlds - minimally impactful backups + higher performing I/O. Thanks!

Looking for some feedback here, I recently noticed some of my backups were larger than I expected given the amount of actual data residing in the guest VMs. But I realized this is because some of those guest VMs had *previously* stored a lot of data and though I had deleted it it wasn't...

Hello, My VM total size is 400 GB and I only use 8-9 GB but the backup size is 63 GB. A few days ago, while only a maximum of 5 GB, right now 63GB and I don't understand this.. I have read all previous writes but could not reach the solution This is Proxmox: root@prox:~# df -h Filesystem...

Hi, I was wondering on the possibility to adding a notes field when creating a backup so that one can add some comments relevant to the backups. I think this would help to identify which backups to restore as well by referencing the notes.

So I am new to proxmox and I am trying to setup an RDX drive to be the backup for all of proxmox. I followed the storage wiki and created the storage in proxmox, here is the link to what i followed. I created it as an LVM type https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Model So now when i try and...

Hello, i have to migrate a big Centos 5 Openvz VPS on a new Proxmox 4 LXC. My Idea was to create a base Centos5 VPS and than use rsync. ( less downtime ). When i try to create a LXC container Cento5: TASK ERROR: unsupported redhat release 'CentOS release 5.11 (Final)' How can i create a minimal...

So after following this guide on how to get my 2TB to be a secondary drive: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Model#LVM_Groups_with_Local_Backing I now come and face that it isnt allowing me to let it become a backup drive, it does however allow containers and vms (only in raw image however...
