Hi It is possible with mount s3 bucket to a directory. After mount you can create a datastore. Check this link to mount s3 bucket. https://www.nakivo.com/blog/mount-amazon-s3-as-a-drive-how-to-guide/
the correct bug/feature request to refer is: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2943 as #3169 marked as a duplicate of this one
Hi,
In the guide that you posted, there is a step where the 'fuse' has to be deleted.
I tried the command, and it will also remove these packages:
ceph-fuse fuse glusterfs-client libpve-access-control libpve-cluster-api-perl libpve-guest-common-perl libpve-storage-perl librados2-perl proxmox-ve pve-cluster pve-container pve-firewall pve-ha-manager pve-manager qemu-server
Does Proxmox still work after I do this?
No, that command is trying to remove core PVE packages. Haven't read that guide, so can't help any further.
Sorry, i missed the question, we are simplyusing blockstorage in geographically distributed locations
one reason to NOT install the PBS on the PVE. Reading that I understood it to be a PBS that is close to the S3 storage. Yes it'll be slow, so my advoce would be to NOT use it for the actual PBS of first backup, but rather a PBS that is synchronizing the already backed up stuff, as a DR/failover in case the primary PBS failed.
first, i think technically it is not necessary to delete any fuse packages.
second, using s3 as a "Library" with some kind of custom code would be great, i think alot of people would love that, i will talk to our developers whether they think they can help with something like that, since it would also benefit us

It would be wonderful to be able to natively add S3 datastores in Proxmox Backup Server.
