[SOLVED] Container names...

[diaolin]

I use PBS and i find it very quick and good and i have anoher question:

Is it possible to have container names in the backup interface?

I add a screen shot of the actual backups
Is it possible to have even the name of the container in addition to it's ID?

Many tx.

I mean like the host/hostname

Seen in the client side the possiblity to add a note.
It could be useful add the note automagically and add the name of the container/vm.
Have you any plan?
Many tx,

you can probably script that with a vzdump hook script[0] and proxmox-backup-client invocations[1]

0: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Backup_and_Restore
1: 'proxmox-backup-client snapshot notes update' see 'man proxmox-backup-client'

This is not true, i use it but it add's a note to the snapshot and not to the ct
ok for the hook, i'll do but why not add it automatic? With many containers (even vm)
this were useful.

I'll take a look to the hooks but if you have an update by the way

Resolved with bash


backup-names.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Phases passed to script as $1
#job-start
#backup-start
#pre-stop
#pre-restart
#post-restart
#backup-end
#log-end
#job-end
#
# add to vzdump as last parameter "--script completepath" (shoud be executable) in /etc/pve/vzdump.cron

export PBS_PASSWORD="password"
export PBS_REPOSITORY="backup@pbs@myservername:backup"

case $1 in
    backup-end)
        /usr/bin/proxmox-backup-client snapshot notes update "$TARGET" $HOSTNAME
        ;;
    #log-end)
    #   /usr/bin/proxmox-backup-client snapshot notes show "$TARGET"
    #   ;;
esac

Many thanks
