Hi,

I have configured a Proxmox Backup Server anded added this to our Proxmox VE Cluster. I'm able to create backups from Proxmox VE and store them on the backup server but I'm not able to create an encrypted backup through the Proxmox VE. A backup key and RSA keys are both created on the Proxmox VE host.

But I'm able to create an encrypted backup if I create the backup from inside the backup (outside the Proxmox VE). I'm using the following command:
Code:
proxmox-backup-client backup root.pxar:/ --keyfile /root/my-backup.key

What am I missing for creating an encrypted backup through Proxmox VE.

Update:
In order to create encrypted backups execute the following command on the Proxmox VE host:
Code:
pvesm set pbs --encryption-key autogen
