Hello,
I was looking for information on this forum, but didn't see any information.
It seems there is some issue with backup/restore procedure when VM contains cloudinit drive. Restoring VM to different Storage, when old storage doesn't exist in proxmox fails with following error:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create VM using cloudinit image
2. Backup VM with standard Backup in Proxmox web gui
3. Remove existing VM
4. Remove storage, where VM was deployed
5. Try to Restore VM
Workaround:
Change Storage name to be the same as previous one, restore VM, change storage name again.
PVE 6.0-4
