Script or Proper Backup Procedure

[scraped]

Seems to be difficult to search for because most threads are about backing up vm's, so excuse me if this is somewhere deep in the forums.

Is there a best practice or a good way to backup the actual Proxmox configuration incase of a drive failure? (i installed proxmox to a USB drive so its unlikely but i would like to be safe).

Hi,
i would save following:
/etc (you need not all - mostly qemu-server, vz, pve and network; but other things perhaps helpfull and don't need much space)
/var/lib/vz (contains also the vm-disks on local storage, template and iso)
/root

AFAIK that should be enough.
