    Remote Migration with Shared Storage not working?

    I've got two non-clustered nodes, that have the same mapped NFS storage locations. Trying to live migrate a VM between these two nodes. I'd think it should be just a memory copy, since the storage is in-place. But I see the remote-migrate task kick off by copying the disk image. # qm...

    Backups to Synology NAS fail about halfway through

    I can't seem to finish a backup. They'll get to about 50-60% and then I see these logs: unable to activate storage 'backups' - directory '/mnt/pve/backups' does not exist or is unreachable ("backups" is the ID of the SMB server, which is a Synology NAS). Backup job is just one VM, size of...

    How to realize this backup concept

    Hello Everyone, we inherited a client with a very non ideal backup concept. The backups are done by a PBS VM that lives on a PVE Host. The PBS host has a permanent datastore on a local mountpoint that mounts an NFS share on a synology NAS over 10G Link to a RAID5 Array of HDDs. This is first...
