Hi,
I am trying to manually backup a LXC container to remote Proxmox Backup Server (store1).

Code:
# pvesm status --storage store1
Name          Type     Status           Total            Used       Available        %
store1         pbs     active       184216960         1801576       172988032    0.98%



Code:
Task viewer: VM/CT 104 - Backup

OutputStatus

INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 104 --compress zstd --mode snapshot --storage store1 --node proxmox --remove 0

What do I need to do to backup to remote storage 'store1'?
Thanks.
 
Hmm - is the container running when you try to start the backup?
please post:
* the container config - pct config 104
* your storage config - cat /etc/pve/storage.cfg
* the output of lvs

No. It was stopped when I performed the backup to PBS.
