Automatic retry

[Einar Stenberg]

Does anybody know how to set it up so that if pve-backup fails it automatically Will retry?

Sometimes we get an timed out ir something, but on next run it works fine.
My thought is to automate the error handling with automatically retrying the backup job.

Is this a hidden feature somwherw, or any hints to what commands are needed in a shell script to accomplish this?

I have the same problem: the first VM fails the backup due to timeout while the subsequent VMs complete the backup successfully.
Is there any way to retry the backup N times?

Same question here. Cannot find any configuration option to retry backups when fail
