Restore VM - changed block (CBT)

[doejohn]

Hello,
I'm backing up proxmox with PBS. PBS is installed on another server, where PVE is also installed. And I'd like to have a regular VM backup set up on this server.
In case the main server becomes unavailable - HW problem etc.
However, restoring always requires deleting the original server (or overwriting the whole VM).
Isn't it possible to restore only changed blocks (CBT)?

I would simply like to always be able to quickly boot the last backup, in case of disasters. Doing a complete restore every night is impossible - when the whole VM can be several TB.
Thank you very much

Currently not, but you can use Live-Restore which starts the VM the moment restore begins... it will be slower but available....

Thank you, I also didn't find anything in the documentation, but I rather wanted to ask.
Isn't that a future plan? Possibly to write on a wish list?
