Error when purging VM

[Deekay]

Hello

when ticking the box purge (VM) i get the following error

Parameter verification failed. (400)

purge: property is not defined in schema and the schema does not allow additional properties

What could be the problem?

Please post the output of pveversion -v and the config for the VM. qm config <VMID>

Have you tried to purge the VM using CLI?

sudo qm destroy 106 --purge

 

[Deekay]

Yeah just tried it i get the following error

only works in shell with skiplock parameter but not in gui

user@RMPHLPVE2:/var/lib$ sudo qm destroy 106 --purge
Unknown option: purge
400 unable to parse option
qm destroy [OPTIONS]

can you please try to upgrade your node to the latest version and re-try again?

apt update && apt full-upgrade

 

[Deekay]

did that and restarted the cluster, the following happens:.

+ this error message:

May 26 15:13:20 RMPHLPVE2 pveproxy[1428]: file /etc/pve/storage.cfg line 4 (section 'local') - unable to parse value of 'prune-backups': unexpected property 'prune-backups'

it seems your versions are still too old, can you please post the pveversion from both nodes again?

 

[Deekay]

Hey thanks for all the help we fixed it, on one node the repo: deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription was missing, and therefore the versions were different.

mg@RMPHLPVE1:~$ pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.4-1 (running kernel: 5.4.114-1-pve)

Vs

mg@RMPHLPVE2:~$ pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.0-2 (running kernel: 5.0.15-1-pve)

After putting in the missing repo and updating all the hosts we were able to use backup/purge feature without any complications
