Been trying to figure out what's going on but I'm not really sure where to start when it comes to backups.
Using Backup Server 2.2-3
Proxmox 7.2-7
CEPH 16.2.9

Here are the logs from the backup server, VM 111 is the Win11 VM.
2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: starting new backup on datastore 'pve1-bkup1-ds1': "vm/111/2022-07-20T06:00:31Z" 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: download 'index.json.blob' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: register chunks in 'drive-efidisk0.img.fidx' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: download 'drive-efidisk0.img.fidx' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: created new fixed index 1 ("vm/111/2022-07-20T06:00:31Z/drive-efidisk0.img.fidx") 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: register chunks in 'drive-ide0.img.fidx' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: download 'drive-ide0.img.fidx' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: created new fixed index 2 ("vm/111/2022-07-20T06:00:31Z/drive-ide0.img.fidx") 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: register chunks in 'drive-tpmstate0-backup.img.fidx' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: download 'drive-tpmstate0-backup.img.fidx' from previous backup. 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: created new fixed index 3 ("vm/111/2022-07-20T06:00:31Z/drive-tpmstate0-backup.img.fidx") 2022-07-20T00:00:38-06:00: add blob "/mnt/datastore/pve1-bkup1-ds1/vm/111/2022-07-20T06:00:31Z/qemu-server.conf.blob" (489 bytes, comp: 489) 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Upload statistics for 'drive-tpmstate0-backup.img.fidx' 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: UUID: 67fbffce240c40178e5f1676d1df63dc 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Checksum: 32f27169c44bf127773da2cec5f806c061fab775b8679d13a2a4a51aa37a57ba 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Size: 4194304 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Chunk count: 1 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Upload size: 4194304 (100%) 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Duplicates: 0+1 (100%) 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: Compression: 0% 2022-07-20T00:00:49-06:00: successfully closed fixed index 3 2022-07-21T11:26:09-06:00: backup ended and finish failed: backup ended but finished flag is not set. 2022-07-21T11:26:09-06:00: removing unfinished backup 2022-07-21T11:26:09-06:00: TASK ERROR: backup ended but finished flag is not set.

Backups are set to run every 30 min on all virtual machines and containers.
10Gb connection from proxmox cluster to backup server.

What logs can I dive into for trying to find the issues with this backup?

Thanks!
 
Hi,
please also check the backup log on the Proxmox VE node.
 
Bit slow on my response. Busy busy.
I checked syslog and messages but couldn't find anything at that time stamp
I checked the proxmox-backup folder for logs but there are none, is there another place for backup logs (other than the backup node)
The backup node looked like a regular set of logs, just what is shown above.

Where else can I look for logs? I haven't had that box online since this issue happened, so no new logs.
 
In the Proxmox VE web UI, you can select your node in the side bar, then Task History in the middle bar. There, you should be able to see the backup log. If there's a lot of tasks, you can filter setting Task Type to vzdump, or you can filter by failed tasks (I expect the backup to have failed on the source side rather than on the backup server).
