datastore

Ist das verwenden der boot disk als datastore nicht vorgesehen? Ähnlich wie bei TrueNAS? Das GUI will es mir nicht anbieten, also ist es offiziell out of spec? Möchte keine out of spec config fahren ;)

Hi, I want to start by saying that I'm fairly new to all of this, but I do have a fully working local PVE and PBS instance working. What I am aiming for now is an offsite PBS instance and sync that to my local PBS. The chances that I will need this offsite PBS are extremely rare as my local...

Hi team, I've noticed that in Proxmox Backup Server (PBS), the sorting functionality for the 'Comment' column in the Datastore -> Content view doesn't seem to work. When I try to click on the column header to sort by comment, nothing happens — the list order remains unchanged. I'm currently...

Hi All, First time trying PBS so forgive the basic questions but I could do with some pointers. This is for a homelab situation and not a production install, so time isn't an issue. I have a couple of Proxmox servers, one of which has TrueNAS installed. This TrueNAS VM offers SMB shares as...

Hello, I am writing this thread to ask some questions about my backup system in my Home Lab: First of all, I have a Mini PC with Proxmox VE running, an LXC container with PBS installed with Helper Scripts. I also have an old Synology DS215j NAS used for backups. Following the instructions in...

Hi everyone. (newbie alert) I have a PBS 3.3.2 server on bare metal. There are two datastores used for backup of a PVE server. I had a couple of drives and decided to stripe two 8TB drives when I started. I wasn't able to create the stripe using the gui, so I did it via the command line...

Hi, Within PBS, there are two places to configure retention: - in the config of the datastore during datastore creation (visible with sudo proxmox-backup-manager datastore show [datastore], don't know how to see in GUI) - when creating a prune job (web UI in the Prune & GC Jobs tab of the...

I have two USB hard drives and want to use them so I have one offline and one online and then after a while switch them so the one that was offline becomes online and vise versa. Is there a way to have same datastore for both disks? Currently I have to datastores - BackupSSD1 for the first...

I did setup a PBS on same host as a pve (I will not use this pve for running propouse, I have others), but I need to connect my backup disk who is a iscsi disk (previous used on another pbs) . My iscsi disk is going up normaly after reboot, but zpool import doesn't work. So my datastore is not...

Hey All, I just wanted to chime in on this in case anyone else is in a similar situation. I have a Primary Proxmox host that runs all my VMs and network storage, and a Secondary Proxmox Backup host that I only turn on every so often to backup my Primary host over to, but otherwise keep it off...

Hello everyone. I have added a PBS datastore as directory on a PVE server. Yesterday we suffer a power outage for 8 hours and unfortunatly, the servers gone offline. When they finally came back online, i got a error 500 and i noticed that the datastore and all the data it contained, where...

Hey everyone, i have a running PBS with an external USB hard drive mounted under /media/usb-pbs where all backups are stored. After the system was switched off for two weeks and I changed the static IP address of the PBS, the corresponding data storage is shown as "not available" in the user...

Hi, I'm new to proxmox backup server and wanted to know if its possible to create a simple SMB share for virtual machines on the same network that could be used for e.g. MySQL dumps/backups. I noticed that samba is already preinstalled and I could just create a share under /mnt/datastore/... but...

Hi, I am running Proxmox Backup Server 2.4-3 in a VM on a TrueNAS Server. So far I had connected a local path from TrueNas Scale into the PBX using NFS, mounted as /nfs/pbx. For performance reasons, I would like to switch to ZFS using a zvol provided from TrueNAS, which I added now as an...

Hi, My 2 synchronized PBS have a ZFS datastore which is 80% full disk space. several hundreds of VMs and the issue is that when a VM is not backuped anymore, snapshots stay on the datastore forever. We have to manually delete groups one by one... So I'm wondering if I could purge an entire...

Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me, however i've spent the last 3 hours trawling though the forums but nothing has worked; Essentially, I reinstalled my PVE cluster earlier this evening so I could deploy PVE8.0. Install complete, fine tuning on the VE side complete so I go to bring...

Hi, Despite the User having Datastore.Audit and Datastore.AllocateSpace rights (on the VM and the Pool via the appropriate PVE roles) , we have the problem that we are not able to allow users to do a backup. The backup tab is present but the user gets Backup access for users results in...

External storage is attached to the pve via open-iscsi + multipath. Incorrectly displayed volume was 3TB LUN size, pve showed 3.3 TB. Stretched to 5TB LAN after pvresize shows 5.5 TB in pve. At the same time, pvdisplay shows correctly: before magnification --- Physical volume --- PV Name...
