PBS restore containers

[Frenshow]

Hello guys !

I would like to know how can I restore a container from a backup which is located in PBS ?

Thanks

Hey,

I'm not sure if I understood your question correctly. The backups should be listed once you've selected the PBS in the "Storage" dropdown.

Hi,

you can also use qmrestore from CLI:

list all snapshot from PBS

proxmox-backup-client list --repository <IP for PBS:STORAGE>

then restore using qmrestore like:

qmrestore <PBS Storage>:backup/vm/109/2020-11-18T12:27:33Z <VMID> --storage NAS

Ok its works, but I have a question.

I have a server that contains the PBS VM. On this VM I have a backup of a container from another server. I want to retrieve the container and store it on the server that contains the PBS VM. How can I do this? Because on the server that contains the VM, there is no PBS storage.

If I correctly understand you have 2 PBS and you need to retrieve the backup of a container from PBS to the PBS VM right? - if so you could use sync-jobs between these two PBS server

Ok I see, but I have an other question

I have several servers. On each of these servers, there is a PBS storage pointing to PBS. To illustrate this, I'll give you an example:

I have a server "A" with a storage pointing to PBS and I have a server "B" with another storage pointing to PBS.

I'm on server B and I want to retrieve the backup of a container that is on the storage of server A, how do I do it?
