Hello Guys!

I just changed hardware and imported the existing datastore to newly installed PBS. The problem is my namespaces is empty. I cant see the backups. I can see the namespaces but they are empty.

I would appreciate some help. Thank you.

cat /etc/proxmox-backup/datastore.cfg
datastore: pbs
path /mnt/pbs/PBS-Sync

ls -l /mnt/pbs/PBS-Sync/
drwx--S--- 6 backup backup 4096 Jun 23 22:34 ns
 
Hi!
could you post ls -lah /mnt/pbs/PBS-Sync (to check if the .chunks folder exists) and also ls -lah /mnt/pbs/PBS-Sync/ns/g75 to check if the snapshots are even there.
You could also try running a verify job.

Edit: what's the storage type and pbs version?
