I have 3 PBS servers, VM's and LXC containers backup to PBS1 then they are synchronized to PBS2. Lastly they backup to offsite PBS3.
However I cannot restore LXC container from any of the PBS.

The error i get is:
Code:
Error: error extracting archive - error at entry "": failed to apply directory metadata: failed to apply acls: Error while restoring ACL - ACL invalid
  Logical volume "vm-108-disk-0" successfully removed
TASK ERROR: unable to restore CT 108 - command 'lxc-usernsexec -m u:0:100000:65536 -m g:0:100000:65536 -- /usr/bin/proxmox-backup-client restore '--crypt-mode=none' ct/108/2021-03-29T22:05:04Z root.pxar /var/lib/lxc/108/rootfs --allow-existing-dirs --repository ***@***@123.123.123.123:BACKUP' failed: exit code 255

Everything was fine few days ago, so its probably because of some new update.

Couldn't reproduce it with empty container either. I had to restore and older backup (from 24.3.2021) which worked fine.
 
I just tried to backup again the old restored backup. Still not able to restore it. I updated the PVE and PBS. It seems that i am unable to restore any LXC.
 
i am doing the same atm. but instead of backing up to pbs i am backing up locally. will let you know.
