Hello, I recently installed PBS and got to work backing up two VMs. One went off without a hitch and the other I received the following error every time I backed it up (around 4% complete):
Upon looking into that error I stumbled upon the backup logs (/var/log/proxmox-backup/tasks/) on PBS and found the following issues relating to VM 100 (the VM with the backup issue):
I read online that there might be some files in the VM that are corrupt and deleting them may resolve it. I am also wondering if a port needs to be opened as VM100 has an active firewall whereas VM105 (successful backup) does not. I also have 1 damaged disk in my ZFS pool which needs to be replaced...not sure if that could have something to do with it as that's where the VMs reside.
Anybody have any ideas or further troubleshooting tips? TIA
