Hello,

I have a question. Is it possible that i can reinstall a Cluster on Linux/Windows? I have a someone who is using my Proxmox VE Interface as a PVEUser. So he can Start,restart,stop the vServer. He asked me to reinstall the Server for his own. Everytime he wants to reinstall it, i have to do it with my Admin Account.

So is it possible to reinstall (Format C: and install the vServer again with same OS) a vServer for his own?
 
Hm .. yes... it could. ^^ forgot about that. :) but a Reinstall feature would be nice in the future

what shoud a reinstall perform better than restore a backup made just after first install?
btw there is also the VM clone feature, but... it depends on what you want/need

Yeah... but the problem is, if you get access to a Proxmox Server, with PV authentificiation, with the Roll/Access: PVEVMUser, you can't create/restore backups. thats the problem. and the user just have to restart,stop the vServer with the Role PVEMUser.
 
? on my 3.1-24 PVEVMUser has VM.Backup
and on the wiki VM.Backup: backup/restore VMs

so something else is wrong perhaps. Could it be access to storage?

I'm not an expert though, I only have admins here...

Hm, yeah.. the PVMUser Role has access to VM.Backup. But when i click on "Backup" with this User, and then on "Backup now", i can't choose any Storage. I have 2 Storage installed. One is HDD and one is SSD.
 
ok, i think I've figured it out, try this:
0. create vm "vmid"
1. create user "user"
2. create group "group"
3. create pool "pool"
4. add "user" to "group"
5. add the vm "vmid" to "pool"
6. add a backup-enabled storage to "pool"
7. add permission to "pool" for "group" as PVEVMUser AND PVEDataStoreUser
8. login as "user", and try to backup the vm
