I have Proxmox 6.3.2 installed and in it I can add the PBS storage from the GUI. But there are several 6.3.6 (via the 6.1.7 or earlier upgrade) - there is no such possibility : ( Can I somehow fix this?
 
So if I understand you correctly, on a node where you installed the latest upgrades, you do not see the option to add a PBS storage in the GUI?

Have you tried to reload the GUI? CTRL+R or CTRL+F5 for example? It is possible that the GUI is still loaded from the browsers cache.

when I upgraded 6.3.2 to 6.3.6 the ability to add PBS storage disappeared (GUI)

Of course I tried it. Moreover, when I upgraded 6.3.2 to 6.3.6, the ability to add PBS storage to the GUI disappeared.
Further downgrade to 6.3.2 did not change anything - the opportunity did not appear. - mistake :)
UPD. Further downgrade to 6.3.2 added the ability to create PBS storage for the data center "entirely" and displaying information about backups and manipulating with them in pbs store became normal.

Wait, so if you downgrade you see the possibility to add a PBS storage? If you run the latest you don't? Can you please show the output of pveversion -v for both situations?

This does sound weird.

Huh! Now I CAN! .... it's a magic :) In the morning I tried on 4 servers with 6.3.6 .. then downgraded one of them - the problem went away. I downgraded all the rest. Now after the upgrade again - no problem. Fluctuation :) Unfortunately, I have no "untouched" ones left 6.3.6 Let's write to the solved ones ;)

Well, glad that it works now, whatever the cause was. I took the liberty to mark the thread as solved. :)
