PVE 3.4 KVM backup parameter missing in GUI

[apmuthu]

Created a KVM under qemu64 with

backup=no

parameter in Proxmox VE 3.4.
The conf file is at

/etc/pve/nodes/host01/qemu-server/100.conf

and it contains:

...
...
ide0: local:100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2,format=qcow2,backup=no,size=10G
...
...

Where in the Proxmox VE GUI do we set the

backup=yes

parameter above?

if you want the backup, just leave the defaults.

ONLY if you do not want to include the disk in the backup, you have to set this to "backup=no"

 

[apmuthu]

I am aware of using the defaults. The point here is if during KVM creation,

backup=no

was chosen, where in the GUI do we revert it later.

For now we merely edit the appropriate

/etc/pve/nodes/host01/qemu-server/###.conf

file.

You are confusing me. You talk about containers but you post VM configs.?

 

[apmuthu]

I meant KVM. The post stands corrected.

 

[dcsapak]

if you edit the disk in the vm config (on the gui), there is an option "nobackup", uncheck it for including this disk in the backups

@dcsapak: Thanks.
