PDM missing backup jobs from PVE / Log retention

[devaux]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to simplify my backup monitoring and would like to use the Proxmox Datacenter Manager (PDM) for a centralized overview.

However, I noticed that PDM is not showing certain jobs, even though they are clearly visible and active in PVE. I have attached two images comparing the logs to show the discrepancy. Does anyone know why some jobs might be missing in PDM?

On a side note, is it possible to extend the log retention in PDM so that older logs aren't deleted so quickly?

Thanks for your help!

Just to clarify since you mentioned 'active' jobs, are you talking about active as in running jobs? The task archive for remote tasks in PDM only shows tasks that have completed or running tasks that have been started by PDM itself, at least for now.

But judging from your screenshots it seems like the backup task is long completed and thus should indeed be present in the task archive.
Is this something that happens regularly or with some other form of regularity (e.g. always tasks from the same remotes or nodes, always the same backup tasks, anything)

Thanks!
