Proxmox Backup Server 3.1 available

[stich86]

currently PBS (2.4) is running as VM on my PVE (7.4)

So if I can upgrade it to 3.1 and still keep running PVE as 7.4 (until receive new SSD and swap all stuff) it will be fine

Or... Can I deploy new PBS on a new PVE host and re-attach old storage and then restore VMs?

i cant seems to upgrade client to 3.1.x

Tell me. There are 2 identical physical pve+pbs servers. There are 2 virtual machines on one of them. The second backup. At first, pbs makes copies to a separate physical disk. I need to have up-to-date copies of virtual machines from the first server on the second (backup) server. Maybe there is some kind of regular mechanism to copy ready-made copies from the first server?

In the release notes there is a reference stating:
"Seamless upgrade from Proxmox Backup Server 2.4, see Upgrade from 2 to 3, which includes the addition of a pbs2to3 helper tool in the old stable release."
In the instructions for upgrade from 2 to 3 there is only a mention that the tool should give a warning but no instruction on how to use it.
Is there documentation available elsewhere?

you can just run the tool with pbs2to3 before (and after) the upgrade. The information given by the tool is rather verbose. A short documentation is its man page man pbs2to3

Sync Job is what was needed. Everything is set up and running. But there is a question. Logging in as root on pbs, I see the data that has been synchronized, and on pve they are displayed. Why? What needs to be done?

I found a problem - there was a lack of a check mark

Got the "ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR" on web after upgrade 3.0.4 to 3.1.
PVE connection is OK, PBS storage is accessible, SSH is accessible, only WEB is broken
Found a troubleshoot in PVE 5.2 wiki, is there any special steps for PBS?

Tried

proxmox-backup-manager cert update --force
systemctl reload proxmox-backup-proxy

with no luck
