Hello!

I just tried creating a backup for the first time, but whenever I click on the "Backup Now" button, I receive the following error message:
1622144060292.png

Parameter verification failed. (400)
storage: invalid format - storage ID " contains illegal characters


For my backup storage, I created a ZFS named BackupZFS.

Any idea what could be causing this?

Thank you!

I mistakenly thought it was possible to use ZFS for backups. Creating a directory storage instead solved this problem.
