I have proxmox 8.2.4 and when I make backups in the evening it starts to block the virtual machines and I cannot access it nor can I ping it. I make backups in Snapshot mode since I cannot turn off the machine since I cannot have loss of service. How can I correct it?
 
Hi,
please share the full backup task log, VM config qm config <ID> and output of pveversion -v.

How does the CPU/network/IO load on the system look like while the job is running? Did you already try setting a bandwidth limit and/or reducing the IO workers for the backup job (can be done in the Advanced tab of the backup job) and see if that helps?
