Resync a snapshot that is corrupted

[dbayer]

Hi Everyone,

We're using PBS 2.4-4.

We had some data corruption on our server, that invalidated several snapshots. Is there a way to have PBS resync specific snapshots? I've read the Docs, and searched the forum and didn't find anything.

Thanks

Run a re-verify task so PBS identifies bad chunks. The next backup/sync job to should upload the bad chunks again. Of cause only works if the data still exists. If the data forming that chunk got overwritten on the PVE host, there is nothing to upload.

Thank you! I'll run that process now. Glad to know that PBS knows how to fix this automatically.
