    PVE backup jobs failing with 'http request timed out'

    I've had a PBS install for a few months now and it has been fine, until most recently after things were updated on the PBS VM Searches for this kind of thing on the forums and google have been less than impressive for results. It's certainly not a network or drive issue. 10G fiber connecting...

    PBS completely full disk

    Hello. I have a remote PBS with 2 disks as a ZFS-mirror. It all worked great but the disks got completely full so it is not operable anymore. I can access it through GUI and SSH, but I can only run few commands. I have deleted almost every log and most of its backups and then waited for more...

    Bypass the 24-Hour delay for Garbage Collection and force delete pending data in PBS

    Hello, I use Proxmox Backup Server (3.2.9) and often face an issue with my storage. My disk usage is frequently between 90-95% of its capacity. To avoid exceeding 95%, I regularly check the storage status and manually delete some backups I consider non-essential. Afterward, I run a garbage...

    Upload backups to S3-compatible cloud storage

    I was wondering if there was a way to copy a backup from PBS and then upload it to cloud storage such as S3 or Backblaze B2. The utility of this would be to have offsite backups. I've already tried mounting the B2 bucket via the s3fs program, but apparently PBS and s3fs don't get along...

    Proxmox VMs/CTs all stopped after failed backup to PBS

    The other night I forgot Proxmox was going to run the backup schedule to the PBS in the middle of the night, so I temporarily shutdown the PBS that night - thus the PVE was unable to perform the scheduled backup. Now, all the VMs/CTs have the greyed out question mark and say "Status: unknown"...
