datastore

Hello, all of a sudden out of nowhere on 1 server my local lvm datastore was on unknown.. i shut down all VMs and restarted the physical server once. Now the datastore doesn't want to link either. I get an inactive status message at pvesm. When I do lsblk I can see my /sdb where the raidset...

Hello, I have Proxmox & TrueNAS on my network. I created a PBS container on Proxmox and want to use the TrueNAS as the backup datastore for PBS since I have already setup ZFS Replication from TrueNAS to another server. So when I use TrueNAS for PBS, I would get 2 backups for the price of 1...

Hi, I am currently trying to solve a timeout issue while loading the content of a datastore. I have a datastore on the server that write directly to a SSD. The second datastore is a samba share that is connected via VPN. I run all of the backup jobs and after that I have a sync job running...

Hello, we sporadically have the error messages below. At around 11pm, about 10 Proxmox servers start backing up. However, we have backup errors all the time. Last night, for example, 5 out of 10 Proxmox servers had a backup error. The errors occur at different times. At the same time, other...

Hi everyone, May I add a 1.1 datastore to a 2.2 PBS ? I am search for some migration pattern from a proxmox to another (both use PBS for backup but on different version)

Hallo, wir betreiben einen Proxmox Backup Server in einer VM auf einem Proxmox Virtualisierer. Nach einer Migation der VM auf einen anderen Virtualisierer kam folgende Fehlermeldung: TASK ERROR: could not activate storage 'pbs1-datastore1': pbs1-datastore1: error fetching datastores - 500...

Good morning, here is a little sunday morning story with a question regarding Datastore emulation: My homelab is growing - while I am evaluating options to shrink it down for power consumption reasons. Growing is not always linear and with different new (in this case: used) hardware come new...

Good day I'm using PVE for over 7 years and i loved PBS as it came out. Everything works like a charm, for sure some skills are needed but without them, we would be wrong in our passion anyways. Thank you in advance for building such unique tools! Actually, I have a server in a dc in frankfurt...

Hello, I have setup on 2 different physical locations proxmox servers with proxmox-backup-server. Now i have configured a sync on both datastores for each other. Only how can i only sync the latest version of the vm? Now he is sync all versions (7) and later with prune&gc he is delete for...

I tried to run Garbage Collection and have saw the warnings in the log WARN: warning: unable to access non-existent chunk fbc102dadf17a3dc81e5eb73986f83ee00809b80e47299343b2954ff560c6b1f, required by "/mnt/datastore/PBS1/s12345/host/cent8/2021-09-30T04:26:24Z/catalog.pcat1.didx Where is the...

Hi, i am quite sure this is a really silly question but I actually banged my head against ZFS-walls (again). I have a PBS Server freshly installed with 3 disks. I have let the installer create me a RAIDZ1 during installation. Now, I ended up with a PBS installation and under Storage -> ZFS I...

I am pulling my hair trying to have a cron based backup setup. First I am trying to have this command working without being croned and it doesn't! The global semantic with the proxmox-backup-client is really very confusing. I have managed to do the initial backup using root@pam account with...

Hello guys ! I would like to know if it possible to delete a datastore in Proxmox Backup Server ? Thank you !

Dear Team, in the pbs gui I can see a number of bad chunks. I could not find any documentation what bad chunks are to understand the situation and how to get rid of these bad chunks. Is this just leftover of old stuff and will be deleted some time, or is this a major problem somewhere? Many...

Hello, we have installed PBS as a vm on PVE. The vm has a virtual disk for the Backup Storage. (40 GB as Directory Storage) Now i want to expand the Storage. At the PVE side i increased the virtual disk. A moment later PBS shows the new disk size. (50GB) But the Datastore shows 40GB. How can...

I have a backup that went to the wrong store, in this case VM 216 I can see that its sitting on the wrong drive (partially). How do I remove the vm and all the chunks and data associated with it There is nothing in the GUI to delete. I tried a garbage collection but that did nothing.
