Hi,
I've recently deployed a pbs node, it's awesome.
I noticed that the reported VM backup size on PVE GUI is the size of the vm disks, not the size of the used space on those disks like on the old backups, so the backup sizes of all my VMs multiplied threefold.
Backups on containers also doubled size, but are well below their disk size, more like their used space but way higher.
Is there any way to compress, or reduce the backup size ignoring the unused space? Maybe it is not reporting the real disk space used to store the backups, and the de-duplication reduces it;
How can I check how many disk space really uses a backup?, It is possible to export it on the old format to restore a host outside of pbs reach?
Thanks
