Hi all. Proxmox started spamming with a backup job. Immediately after the task is completed, it starts it again. What could it be?

Hi,
Hi all. Proxmox started spamming with a backup job. Immediately after the task is completed, it starts it again. What could it be?
did you modify the job before it started happening? Was it a newly created job? Do you have a cluster or is this a stand-alone node?

If you haven't rebooted yet, can you post the output of ps aux | grep pvescheduler?

Please also post the output of pveversion -v and part of /var/log/syslog around the time the issue started happening.
 
also can you post the content of the file '/var/lib/pve-manager/jobs/vzdump-<id of backup job>.json' ?

I created a standard backup job each then changed the time from 21:00 to 18:00 and got mon ...fri 18:00. This is a standalone node.
If you haven't rebooted yet, can you post the output of ps aux | grep pvescheduler?
root@prox3 ~ # ps aux | grep pvescheduler
root 1558 0.0 0.0 329404 99116 ? Ss Aug28 0:19 pvescheduler
root 1463053 0.0 0.0 6180 728 pts/0 S+ 10:01 0:00 grep pvescheduler

But I returned again to the standard task and the problem was gone.
Please also post the output of pveversion -v and part of /var/log/syslog around the time the issue started happening.
root@prox3 ~ # pveversion -v

/var/log/syslog

There is nothing in the logs related to the backup.
 
also can you post the content of the file '/var/lib/pve-manager/jobs/vzdump-<id of backup job>.json' ?
root@prox3 ~ # cat /var/lib/pve-manager/jobs/vzdump-backup-ea1da398-ddf2.json {"state":"stopped","upid":"UPID:prox3:00074AEB:02550BD8:63111D52:vzdump::root@pam:","msg":"OK","updated":1662153427}
 
is it still happening? can you post the content of /etc/pve/jobs.cfg and
Code:
head /var/lib/pve-manager/jobs/vzdump-*
?
