Restore file from PBS GUI from a encrypted backup

[Dark26]

Bonjour,

I'am doing some backup test :

I have a question :

For the backup :

if i use the promox-backup-client to backup , for example my home directory to a name space on pbs no problem.
if i use the promox-backup-client to backup , for example my home directory to a name space with encryption ( with --keyfile ) on pbs no problem.

For the resaturation :

From the command line , i can mount via fuse the encrypted and not encrypted backup if i want to restore, no problem.

From the PBS gui, i can restaure the file from the backup not encrypted.

From the PBS gui, i can't restaure the file from the backup which is encrypted. It's normal, because i didn't put anywhere the key for the decryption. No problem with that.

Is it possible to have for example a pop up windows when we want to restaure a file, to put the encryption key, so we can do the restauration from the gui, jsut the time for teh restauration ?

Maybe it's already possible but i didn't find the option anywhere.

Thanks for reading me

Hi,
there is no way to restore a file from the gui from an encrypted snapshot because the encryption is client-side (https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/backup-client.html#encryption). You will have to use the `proxmox-backup-client` and your keyfile to restore.
