Hello,
I was hoping to find some clarity. I am new to Proxmox and setup a backup of 1 VM to test, I setup the backup using Snapshot mode and every 2 hours, But as soon as I started the backup, the VM shut down and so were all my websites and when the backup was finished the Websites were still down. I had to manually shut down the VM and start it again for my sites to be back online.
Is this a normal process? I did not think it was but wondering what went wrong?
Should I just use Stop mode and it should shut down the VM and then start it and my websites should work again?
I find it weird that I had to shut it down and start it to get my websites working again
Could this be a bug?
I am using the latest Proxmox Virtual Environment 7.1-10
Thank you in advance to anyone who is able to help me!
Kind Regards,
Spiro
