[SOLVED] Reconnect Proxmox Backup Server to PVE Cluster

[Tmanok]

Hi Everyone,

My local Proxmox Backup Server stopped networking for some reason (possibly a driver issue?) while running as a VM under BHyve, so I issued a systemctl restart networking and things returned to normal. However, the Proxmox Virtual Environment cluster now shows the PBS repository as a question mark (disconnected/unavailable). Is there any way to refresh this without restarting the nodes? Is the best move to remove and re-add the PBS repository? Will this remove any "memory" of my backup history?

Edit: I tried going to Datacentre > Storage > "PBS1" > Edit > Enable (uncheck) > OK > Wait 60s > Edit > Enable (checked) > OK > Wait.... it returns to being a storage with a question mark.

Thanks!

Nevermind, I figured out the issue. If you reboot the PBS VM, it will return to normal and register with the cluster. If there are other suggestions, please feel free to add them.
