I've updated (apt-get style) some 1.3 proxmox machines and can not create backup jobs. the new storage thingie seems to be playing with me.


trying to "Backup:create new Job" gets me:

Error: no backup storage defined - please create a backup storage first

I have create any number of storages:

v4:~# pvesm list
backup lvm 0 1 732303360 143654912 20%
local dir 0 1 98788640 870860 1%
local-vdisks dir 0 1 4939392 850492 17%
local-vzdump dir 0 1 4939392 850492 17%


any help would be wonderful!

Maybe a stupid question, but did you assign them as a backup storage type?

I created a nfs storage and selected vzdumps as type and works fine.
 
I haven't use the commandline but the webinterface. the error message appears as javascript alert an i cannot create a schedulable backup-job.

Each storage has an assigned 'content' type - you need to select "VZDump Backup" if you want to use a storage for vzdump (on the web interface).
 
tnx! got it

is there any doc written yet how to use the new storage thingie (web-interface)?
