Hi, i'm the developer of proxmoxbackupgo and s3 backup proxy , i'm happy to announce that as of now also backing up whole running OS to PBS is possible , restore is wip but can already be done "manually" by using dd + downloading the FIDX file

For who still didn't see the project here's the link
https://github.com/tizbac/proxmoxbackupclient_go

To summarize , main additions compared to official client are

- Windows support both for directory backup and full disk backup leveraging VSS
- FreeBSD support
- Darwin / OSX support
- Stream mode backup for efficient SQL backup
- Coming soon , physical to virtual conversion for windows

Project is GPLv3 licensed and will be always free, contributions are welcome
 
Hi, thanks for your contribution. How can I have multiple instances running at the same time to upload several backups simultaneously?
 
Hi, I've been working with tizbac over the last few weeks on some major improvements to this project, which has now been renamed to Salvanza - https://salvanza.org and a 2.0.0 release has now been made.

We have added a full Windows and Linux desktop GUI, with backup, restore, undelete, and rollback features, plus enhanced the CLI tools. In addition there is a bootable ISO based on Clonezilla that enables a Bare Metal Restore option for disaster recovery.

Full machine backups as -vm type can also be restored into PVE, with a few additional steps that effectively allows P2V functionality. Alternatively backup a whole physical disk then create a blank VM and restore using the BMR ISO into the VM.

Even for those that have tried it recently, I think you will see a huge improvement in what it has to offer.

It remains a totally free and open source project under GPL-3.0.

MSI installer, plus .deb, .rpm and Arch packages are available for AMD64 and ARM64 systems, as well as the bootable recovery ISO for use via CD, USB or Ventoy.

Please do let us know what you think and provide any feedback by raising an Issue on Github at https://github.com/Salvanza/salvanza_client
