Hi

Using PBS, is there any way to make a backup running for instance, in VMware, and then restore it in Proxmox VE?
Do we need always relying on third-party to do that???
Right now I am force to use VinChin which is an excelent backup tool. It's just connect to any hypervisor and make possible to list the vms in the hypervisor without installing nothing. Then I can perform backup from that hypervisor and restore it to Proxmox.

I think that it's about time PBS do this job.

Just to answer my own question, this is a good start!
