Good day,
I just started using PBS 2.2. It's on a dedicated server which also contains my in-house file archive and home directories. I plan to bring in a tape library at a later date.
The tape features, as near as I can tell, will work just fine. The immediate issue I'm running into is there seems to be no way to schedule a backup job directly from the PBS web interface. That's a huge problem for me (and, I suspect, others). Yes, I can work around it using the CLI and cron jobs, but it really shouldn't have to be that clunky.
Perhaps I've overlooked something? The vast majority of the backups I need to do will NOT be from PVE-based VM's, but from PBS's own local disk. There has to be an easier way than screwing around with the CLI, manually.
Hoping so, anyway... Thanks.
