sync

I'm planning to test restoring backup from off-site PBS server. I realised that I don't have a clue how to do this. We have a remote backup server but no obvious way to sync back an old backup. (One VM only.) Restoration from local PBS is simple but how does one do it if the host does not have...

I'm considering to sync backups to a set of two external USB HDDs, where one HDDs is connected and the other one is stored off-site. Several forum threads suggest that syncing to an external HDD should be possible. One question remains: Do I need to create two different mount points/datastores...

Hi Proxmox Community, I was able to discover replication and the HA manager for quick transitions of VMs and I am happy with that for most things. I just have a couple critical services that require attention. I'm wondering if it's possible to have two VMs on different servers have a continuous...

Hello everyone, I have a Proxmox VE running on an old PC, and I have some trust issues regarding the security of my backups. I don't want to reconfigure all my containers again in case one of my hard drives stops working. So, I want to know if there is an easy way to sync the backup folder with...

Hey ich bin ein riesen Proxmox fan geworden und habe aktuell 2 Server bei denen einer Master und einer slave ist, diese sind nicht als HA Verbund konfiguriert. Sie laufen beide unabhängig voneinande, jedoch sichert der Haupserver einmal in der Nacht die VMs und LXCs via ZFS Sync auf den slave...

According the PBS manual, HTTP/2 is used for transfer data. Does this work when using IP server for remote sync or for FDQN? Or is a FQDN a requirement for HTTP/2?

Hi there. I'm experimenting a bit with setting up a 3-2-1 strategy for my home lab. The setup is pretty much the following: a tiny PVE cluster with some nodes and one shared bigger (>20TB) storage node a tiny PBS node with large primary backup storage (zfs, >20TB) and a hotswap HDD used for...

Ive never really done much with LDAP filters before, and I am struggling to create one for my setup. The groups is another issue but right now I am just trying to make one for users. Here is what I have tried already. I have tried memberOf=CN=pve_admins,OU=users,DC=ad,DC=test,DC=com...

Hey everyone! As far as I understand, my Proxmox 7 cluster, installed on top of a Debian 11 Bullseye, uses systemd-timesyncd to keep the clock in sync via external NTP servers, configured either in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf or in a separate file inside /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.d/. All of...

I currently backup my VMs to the local data-store on PVE, works great. Recently, I have added PBS into the mix, but am struggling to figure out how to integrate it into my infrastructure in a meaningful way. There are two options I see, but am unable to figure out how to implement either...

tl;dr: in title I have a three node proxmox cluster in physically separate locations within the company. They are on internal redundant networks 1G branches, 10G and 100G backbones. Unfortunately, I did not completely do all of my homework before migrating physboxes to proxmox VMs (and LXCs...

Hallo zusammen, wir haben einen 2-Node Cluster mit Proxmox 7.x und identischer Hardware. Storage der VMs befindet sich auf ZFS. Über die in Proxmox integrierte Replikation wird der Storage alle 15 Minuten synchronisiert. Alle VMs waren auf einem Knoten aktiv und wurden auf den zweiten Knoten...

Hey how’s it going all, I’m doing a bit of experimenting and wondering if it’s possible to have several Proxmox nodes each with their own local storage, and the VMs on that storage mirrored/synced onto a shared store; then HA setup so if any Proxmox node goes down, the VM is read/run/hosted...

Hello, I have two proxmox backup servers. One offiste to archive the backups from the first one. The offsite server (offsite) gets the backups from the first one (backup1) with sync jobs. This works for multiple datastores except for one. This datastore have about 2520 hosts. Sometimes the...

Hello all, I'm thinking about migrating to PBS for on-site & off-site backup. While the connection between headquarters and branch office is relatively (very) slow, the backups have always lagged behind for some days (using copy job in Veeam). The lagging is not a problem while is ok that i...

Hello! I've been using PBS since about a year now, love it! I know it is recommended to run the server with SSD data disks. Unfortunately I cannot afford it and have to use spinning disks. Backup and restore works masterfully and perform well, but verification and sync seems to be too slow. At...

Hi, Right now I got a single PBS-VM1 on Host2 that got its datastore from Host2 via NFS. And this PBS-VM1 and NFS share is available all the time. Problem is that I can't backup Host2 or guests on it, because if Host2 fails there would be no running PBS to restore them from. I also got Host1...

Hi, I have set up a sync job between 2 PBS on 2 sites, A ---> B, (both running on an OpenMediaVault install, both PBS 2.2-3) a few months ago and everything was running smoothly so far. 2 sync jobs a day, running after the backups are done on site A. For 2 days now, I've got the following...

EDIT June 15, 2022 - I was looking at old logs. This is NOT an issue. Board admins, please delete this entire thread as it is completely invalid. I manually deleted chunks. Because I did that, I was unable to perform syncs. To fix that, I deleted my Datastore and recreated it. (See...

Hello everyone. Is there a way to exclude certain groups (VMs/CTs) from a sync job? I'm syncing to an usb HD. And while my PBS instance keeps a lot of backups I only want some of them in the usb storage. Can this be expressed using Group Filter? Best Regards/Viele Grüße ....Volker
