Proxmox lockwait

[Donovan Hoare]

Good Day All.
I would like to increase my lockwait timeout from 180 mins to 600 mins
Noone says exactly where to edit some say add --lockwait to vzdump
However i have nothing in that file.

Chat gpt says to edit
nano /etc/pve/datacenter.cfg
backup-lockwait: 600

however another post says
it must be lock wait: 600

but doesnt tell me which file.
Can someone please be more exact on where to edit it and is the value is seconds or mins.
Im running proxmox 8
