not able to restore backup anymore

[peterx]

When restoring a LXC container I got the this error:
Parameter verification failed. (400)
bwlimit: type check ('number') failed - got ''

The same on my second Proxmox (not clustered).
What can be wrong?

I found what the problem was. I should have filled in the read limit in the restore window. However it suggests (greyed out) that not filling in a value means that the default will be used. I tried 0 as suggested the value to be unlimited, did not work either. I used value 1 and than the restore worked, but extremely slow. using 100 or 1000 worked like normal.
My question: is the read limit value a feature or a bug?

leaving empty should work, thats a bug (i sent a patch to the list: https://pve.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2019-December/041038.html )

as a workaround you can select a very big limit as you already noticed
