Hi,

    content iso,backup

user.cfg

vzdump
Code: 
0 1 * * *           root vzdump --mailto root@domain.tld --storage local-lvm-data --mailnotification always --pool production --compress lzo --mode snapshot --quiet 1

Backups not started via "pool" method.
 
When i remove storage "data" from pool "production" configuration and add VM directly to this pool, VM is backuped.

Code: 
Nov 26 11:15:01 proxmox-01 CRON[3278468]: (root) CMD (vzdump --mailnotification always --quiet 1 --pool production --mailto root@domain.tld --storage local-lvm-data --mode snapshot --compress lzo)

Nov 26 11:15:02 proxmox-01 vzdump[3278475]: INFO: Starting Backup of VM 100 (qemu)
Nov 26 11:15:02 proxmox-01 qm[3278479]: <root@pam> update VM 100: -lock backup
Nov 26 11:15:28 proxmox-01 vzdump[3278475]: INFO: Finished Backup of VM 100 (00:00:26)
Nov 26 11:15:28 proxmox-01 vzdump[3278475]: INFO: Backup job finished successfully

Switched again to storage "data" from VM directly:
Code: 
Nov 26 11:30:01 proxmox-01 CRON[3286282]: (root) CMD (vzdump --compress lzo --mode snapshot --mailto root@domain.tld --storage local-lvm-data --pool production --quiet 1 --mailnotification always)
 
PVE wiki:
Code: 
pool: <string>
Backup all known guest systems included in the specified pool.

Proxmox team? What's correct configuration for pool backup? Do i need add VMs into pool? Or it's bugged?
 
Hi,

of course you need to add your VM's to that pool, that's the idea. You create a pool and add VM's to it, if a backup job is configured for that pool it will backup all VM's in that pool. This has nothing to do with the storage in your pool.
 
OK, thanks, i will rather saw ability to not needing adding VMs to that pool, but can live with it.
