vzdump

Hallo, Ich sende einmal die Woche Backups von meinen VMs/LXCs über CIFS zum NAS (FreeNAS). Das ganze dauert leider jetzt rund 2 1/2 Stunden und da ich das im "Stop"-Modus mache sind dann halt die VMs ziemlich lange nicht erreichbar. Verbunden sind die Server per Gbit-LAN und bei normalem...

Hi, I am forwarding the vzdump result mails to Pushover (SMTP to Push-Gateway). Unfortunately I cannot see the result of the vzdump in the title as it is too long for the smartphone screen. Is there a way to change the subject of the result mails or do I need to use own hook scripts? Greetings...

About a month ago the server stopped to send e-mail after performing a backup with vzdump. In the logfile I do not find a line which indicates that vzdump does do this. I also checked the /var/log folder if a file contains the target e-mail address, no result. The mailserver is correct resolved...

Hi there, We are trying to use a vzdump hook script to do some things. We have a Proxmox cluster setup with several hypervisors. We took a look at /usr/share/doc/pve-manager/examples/vzdump-hook-script.pl and made an adaptation: #!/bin/bash LIST_BORG_BACKUPS=${DUMPDIR}/list_borg_backups...

Hi every one, I just installed new 6.1 PVE and found snapshot backup is not working at all. I found the backup log ceased after the following line: INFO: issuing guest-agent 'fs-freeze' command I guess maybe qemu-guest-agent cause this issue, so I login into VM(CentOS7) and stop...

Hi Team have a strange issue with a backup policy. Round 1. we previously had a backup policy to take a backup once per week and keep 1 backup. As things change we needed to update this policy to accommodate for more frequent backups. Round 2. The old policy was removed and a new policy...

Hello Proxmox community. It has been a while, and I have been rethinking my backup strategy. What would be the recommended backup procedure? Or a recommended backup procedure? I am running Windows Server 2019 with a SQL Express Database on a separate vmdisk within the VM. So far I have been...

For several days we were struggling with a VM crash during the night. Unfortunately this VM is currently a SPOF, causing a lot of problems. PVE dashboard showed a yellow triangle with text "IO error". VM frozen state, no access possible using ssh or console, until poweroff/on. On the VM itself...

I found this odd. I had an old Server with 2 x 1 TB SSDs setup. One Nvme and one Sata SSD setup as a Raid ZFS 1 or mirror. The Storage pool I setup with ZFS mirror is a little smaller than the new server, but contains way more VM Disks but takes up less space. It's weird. Can somebody help...

Hi, I have noticed this issue where all of my LXC fail to backup while all of the the VMs do backup successfully. This is similar to This Thread which has been marked "Solved", though that sounds like a workaround. This is the error I am seeing: INFO: Starting Backup of VM 110 (lxc) INFO...

Hi all, I've run into a situation where my server (running 5.4-3) shutdown, and when booting again, had no network access at all (despite attempts to change IPs etc..) Thus, I've decided to call it quits and start again, on the latest 6.1 PVE version. I've thrown a USB stick into the machine...

Good day all, I might be doing something wrong that's very simple, I get the following error in the log file: find: missing argument to -exec or INFO: find: -exec: no terminating ";" or "+" These errors I get on proxmox 5.4 and newer, but on the proxmox 4.xx version the hookscript does what...
