restore without pbs

[julicravo]

Dear,

Is it possible to do a restore with just the datastore (chunks, lock files...) without pbs?
I made the backup on my external HD, and I need to restore it on my proxmox, but I don't have the pbs, just the External HD, with the data.

Thanks.

Then you will have to install a new PBS and configure it to use your old datastore folder, set up all users and privileges matching the owners of the backup snapshots (or change the ownership to fit a new user), add your PBS storage to PVE again, ...

Then you would need to use the offline mirror if you want to install it bare metal next to PVE.
Or run PBS inside a VM and disk passthrough your external diskm install PBS from a downloaded ISO.
