Hi,

I have a VE, and I installed a PBS too. I want to add a Proxmox Backup Server storage to the VE, but I get an error message:
create storage failed: pbs-id: error fetching datastores - 500 Can't connect to 1.2.3.4:8007 (Connection reset by peer) (500)
From the ve I can ping the pbs, and can connect to its 8007 port:
telnet 1.2.3.4 8007
 
I tried to create the storage with the gui first, but then I tried to add it with cli:
pvesm add pbs pbs-id --server 1.2.3.4 --datastore datastore
The error message was the same.
I use custom certificate, but I would have to use the pbs's fingerprint after the success of the above command.
