Hi, I'm trying to do a global backup of my Proxmox machine, however I can only select each individual VM and backup. The backup then has no option for storage, however Storage is enabled on the Datacenter local path /var/lib/vz. Why no storage option on backup?
...or ideally, backup to a remote HDD, rather than backing up locally, then transferring to the remote HDD.
 
post the output of:

Code:
cat /etc/pve/storage.cfg
