Hi.

I have a PVE cluster with about 14 node servers. Recently, I have upgraded some nodes to PVE 7.2-7. After the upgrade, I cannot access the storage proxmox backup to view the backup files and we got the error as image below:

Is this a bug of new PVE version? Or may I miss something during the upgrade?
 
Same problem here with GUI.

Loading backups by REST-API works as expected.
/api2/json/nodes/{_NODE_}/storage/{_STORAGE_}/content?vmid={_VMID_}
(Fetching 5.000 Backups in less then 5 minutes)


Loading 14 backups in Proxmox GUI results in HTTP 500 after 8 seconds

PVE: 7.2.7
PBS: 2.2-5

Just to note. I followed the Bugzilla and applied the suggested patch to my PBSPlugin.pm file and it didn't work. This was a clean install. To get mine working I copied the PBSPlugin.pm from one of my pve6 nodes to the pve7 one.
 
We have same issue pretty often in backups. Backup of VMs are done, later verified as good but whole backup is counted as failed because one backed up VM get "Error listing snapshots - 500 read timeout"
This happens when backup collide with verification (api call for snapshots list took about 30s)

PVE version: 7.2-11 (timeout patch used)

we have a similar issue when trying to retrieve a Namespace inside the root Datastore , running 7.2.11
what exactly is the problem you have? please post the relevant infos (datastore size, namespaces, etc), the commands you executed (or similar), the result, and what you expected

I posted another thread just over this one that is marked as solve.

The details are there.
Even if we successfully add the datastore we can't retrieve the vm disks. We see the database usage we can't retrieve any vm when we search them in the gui
