I am receiving these notifications every hour:
However, those snapshots do not exist in my datastore and I can't find anywhere to remove the associated verification job. The error in the task shows:
I have tried removing the group from the datastore and doing a new backup of those containers.
Any tips on how I can stop these notifications from firing? All of my other backup and verification jobs are working as expected.
As an aside, I had renamed the hostname from proxmox-backup.lan to pbs.lan recently, but the notifications are still referencing the old hostname.
Code:
