Good day,

I created a backup in the datacenter to backup one of my nodes 3 times a week. I set that he should send me an email. Somehow this backup is not working. Where can I found the log files to troubleshoot this problem

Regards

Gregor
 
Both . But when the backup works I think that the email will follow.
 
Any hint in /var/log/syslog? Maybe you need to restart cron:

# service cron restart

Does that help?
 
I see this after restarting the service and a backup planned on 19:23 "
May 31 19:17:01 proxmox2 /USR/SBIN/CRON[802145]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)
May 31 19:22:29 proxmox2 /usr/sbin/cron[802369]: (CRON) INFO (pidfile fd = 3)
May 31 19:22:29 proxmox2 /usr/sbin/cron[802371]: (CRON) STARTUP (fork ok)
May 31 19:22:29 proxmox2 /usr/sbin/cron[802371]: (CRON) INFO (Skipping @reboot jobs -- not system startup)
May 31 19:23:20 proxmox2 pmxcfs[123301]: [dcdb] notice: data verification successful
May 31 19:24:01 proxmox2 /usr/sbin/cron[802371]: (*system*vzdump) RELOAD (/etc/cron.d/vzdump)

"
I don't now what I have to see here but I don't see any backup so .any hints

regards

Nothing, it is empty


Update: There is a bacup file on my storage create this night at 01:00, but when I look in Datacenter - Backup the schedule is gone?

Is this normal that is is empty after a Job? I was expecting that is was working in a schedule so it would do it every week?

best regards
