Proxmox backup server

[proxmoxgokan]

Hello

I don't use proxmox VE. I am using KVM on Ubuntu. (for different reasons...)
I want to use Proxmox backup server for backup. Is this possible?

Thanks.

Only with the proxmox-backup-client via CLI. ITs made for Debian but I guess it will work for ubuntu too.

It will be Debian. I'm already using it. Can I backup KVM virtual machines in Debian? (using proxmox-backup-client.)

You can backup any folder/file/blockdevice you specify using the CLI but it won't manage/backup your complete VMs if you are not using PVE. So you would need to script something yourself to shutdown the VMs first (so you backup is consistent), then backup the image files or blockdevice and the VMs config files and so on.
