    Request: how to backup PBS to gdrive? What strategies do you use?

    I'm using PVE locally as a desktop. My current backup startegy: PVE > NAS > gdrive (over Goodsync in WIN10 ((( ) and direct VM backups to gdrive and onedrive. I want something more solid! Local PBS + cloud seems best for me. I have gdrive unlimited and 1tb onedrive, so would be perfect to use...

    Proxmox + NAS (OMV) + ZFS

    I know this has been asked quite a lot... I read threads all day, but still got no definitive answer yet. The idea is to have a Proxmox VE that runs OMV as NAS solution using a ZFS filesystem.

    Store VM application data locally vs in a NAS

    Hello, I'm new to Proxmox and am still confused on where to store each VM's application data. I've read a lot of threads here but most of them focus on storing the actual VM files while I'm interested in where to store each application's specific data. Example of the data I want to store...

    What is the true way for using/creating NAS

    Hi all. I have a dedicated server to create NAS, primarily backups data from VMs and hosts. What is the true way for this job: 1.
