PVE backup jobs failing with 'http request timed out'

[dooferorg]

I've had a PBS install for a few months now and it has been fine, until most recently after things were updated on the PBS VM

Searches for this kind of thing on the forums and google have been less than impressive for results. It's certainly not a network or drive issue. 10G fiber connecting the PBS VM and it's writing to a local RAID 6.

I have VM backups failing with this sort of message:

ERROR: Backup of VM 1021 failed - VM 1021 qmp command 'backup' failed - backup connect failed: command error: http request timed out

Is there a way to increase the timeout value?

I'm having the same problem on just one VM.

No, this timeout cannot be adapted. Rather one should look for the cause. Are you using self referencing backups (backing the PBS VM to itself)? Does this happen only for this VM or for others as well? If so, is there a correlation to the PBS VM backup job (e.g. running at the same time)?

Please share the full backup task log for the job in question.
