_root: an object is required

[eric123232]

Good day all,

I have a Proxmox cluster with 2 nodes "PVE" and "PVE2". I noticed this morning that PVE2 has not had a backup in my PBS server on over a month(I have daily backups set up) I originally though it was an access issue with my backup storage and I copied the SHA fingerprint, removed and re-added it to storage options under datacenter.

I've rebooted both servers, that also did not change this behavior.

I am able to manually go into each VM and run the backups and they go through, however when I try to make a backup job PVE works but PVE2 results in the below error:


Any suggestions or assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Both nodes are running version 8.2.2

Hi,
please share the output of pveversion -v from both nodes. Did you already try clearing the browser cache and reload the UI page?

Hello,
I've attempted to clear browser cache, reload UI, and rebooted both nodes. Please see the output of pveversion -v below.

Not wanting to anticipate anything here, but I would investigate, why pve-manager on your PVE 2 is still on 8.1.10 instead of 8.2.x.
(The kernel is, btw, also still on 6.5.x instead of 6.8.x...)

You might want to make sure, that your repositories: [1] are (still) set up properly and then run: apt update followed by: apt full-upgrade and check their outputs respectively.

Thanks for the help, I was not expecting it to be that simple. I fixed an error with the repositories on the PVE2 node and did a apt full-upgrade Which did the trick.
