Hello,

I have an issue with the incremental backups of PBS. When i try to restore from the "main" firsty backup it restores fine. But if i try to restore from incremental backups, the followed error occurs. PBS's datastore is connected with NFS to QNAP NAS device. I Tried removing the Datastore for PBS, removing all the data on .chunks directory and recreating the datastore. Also there is no unproper shutdown for PBS server.

restore failed: reading file "/mnt/pve/NasaNFS/PBS/.chunks/7ff6/7ff6ec08224fdbae3dfd79989f3a5617137a095b3dd9cc7718802defb2f3245f" failed: No such file or directory (os error 2)

removing all the data on .chunks directory

If I understand correctly you removed all the files contained in the .chunks folder? Those contain the backup data, so if I understood correctly then I'm afraid all your data is gone.

Yep i know this. And I don’t care about it. The issue is, newly created backups still not working properly.
