PBS file restore - "timeout"

[tonci]

Hello to all

one of PBS-backedup VMs is linux mail server that stores each mail as one file (Kerio-Connect-GFI)
In this case, one of users has cca 160.000 mail files in #msgs directory and while browsing mentioned directory , this kind of time-out message pops up

Is there any chance to browse this kind of too-many-files directories ?

PBS setup ->
4 x 4T sata raidz10 (PBS and /rpool/datastore dataset as datastore)
2 x satadom 64G ssd as special device


Thank you in advance

on the gui part, we have a hard limit of 30 seconds for such api calls, if the listing takes longer, this is not really possible atm.
you should be able to use the cli tool instead though, see 'man proxmox-file-restore' for more info
