verify

Just crossed my mind: how useful are verify jobs on PBS when using zfs datastore? I mean the zfs itself checks the integrity of data on all operations and automatic scrub is either enabled by default or very easy to setup so the verify job concept seems rather unnecessary to me. I could be...

Hello, we have a weird phenomen on our two backup servers running version 2.4.2 and all packages up-to-date. Our daily verification job that starts running at 02:00 ends up with the status 'unknown' at 00:00. The job actually seems to need more than one day to complete because of our file...

Hello, I want to store the backups of my PVE encrypted on my PBS. I am now wondering whether the pbs can still run a prune/verify/gc on the backups, since the pbs does not have an encryption key? My second question is whether the backups are still incremental at all?

To verify backup images, I have to run this in the CLI zstdcat /var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-qemu-100-2023_05_02-21_36_38.vma.zst | vma verify -v - Would be very helpful if it can be from the GUI as well.

Hi, I have a verify job on my Proxmox Backup Server which sends me an "Verify Datastore 'xxxx' successful" E-Mail after each run. Is it somehow possible to configure the verify job, that this mail is only send on failure? Thanks, Thomas

Hello, while restoring a vm backup over the pbs i noticed that the restore took a huge amount of time, multiple hours in fact which would be catastrophic for a productive system that needs to be restored in case of sudden crashes. So i tried to look into the possible reasons as of why the...

Hello, I have a question, i read from @tuxis they reach around 2GB/s read speed for verify https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/pbs-scaling-out-storage.97785/#post-430819 The also use normal disks with special devices, just like our situation. 12 x 7200 RPM 8 TB disk (RaidZ2) 2 x 960 GB...

Hi, I have recently replaced all my HDD for 10 SSD for my ZFS Datastore. This is now extremely fast specially verify jobs (even if we can discuss the interest of verifying snapshots on a ZFS pool). The weird thing is that PBS reports fragmentation on the related pool : AFAIK, on a SSD...

Hi , since a few days i'm experiencing some pretty troublesome problems with my PBS. I increased the size of my datastore from 4TB to 10TB and since then, I have a lot of verify tasks that are failing. Here is one of the many failed log that i'm recieving: () 2021-11-03T02:13:50+01:00...

Hi there, what is the reasoning behind the verify command always verifying all backups, even those already verified? I don't think a new backup modifies previous backups, correct? This almost takes a full day to verify our 500 backups from our cluster.. thanks!
