Add default repository

[William Edwards]

For the sake of testing, I configured a Proxmox Backup Server instance and installed the `proxmox-backup-client` on a Debian machine. Now, I'd need to add the Debian client to my Proxmox Backup Server instance. I specified a repository when logging in, but when I do not specify repository anymore, I get the error `Error: unable to get (default) repository`.

So how should I configure the default repository?

Any clues would be welcome.

Now, I'd need to add the Debian client to my Proxmox Backup Server instance;

backups are (for now) push only, so you have to call the 'proxmox-backup-client' on your client to push a backup to the server

I figured that out just before you posted

I edited my post.

the default repository is set via the environment variable "PBS_REPOSITORY"

e.g.

export PBS_REPOSITORY="root@pam@mypbshost:mypbsdatastore"
