I have 2 datastores setup

How to choose in proxmox VE to choose which of the 2 you want use in a particular schedule? It seems you can only select the proxmox backup server, but not which datastore?
 
you need to create the PBS storage on your Proxmox VE host/cluster, and you have to select the datastore and the namespace there.

if you want to use different datastores on the same host, define a second PBS storage.

Ah yeh.. should have thought about that myself!! Cheers! That will work :)

I'll get some more coffee.. clearly I wasn't awake! :P
