Hello! I have 2 questions.

First about integration PBS and Proxmox VE. I want to create a separate user for this, but nowhere in the documentation, neither for PBS nor for Proxmox VE, I saw what minimal privileges it needs. Will it be enough to set Datastore.Backup? It will be necessary to create copies of both VM and containers.

Second question. I have 4 disks and want use RAID10 via ZFS. Can I do this via PBS installer? This sentence confuses me: "The Proxmox Backup installer creates 3 partitions on all disks selected for installation". Does this mean that the installer does not have the ability to manually partition the disk? Will I need to install PBS on top of Debian to get the schema I want?
