Hi, we're currently setting up a second Proxmox cluster, but the backups for both clusters will be done on the same Proxmox Backup Server. Is there a way to configure both Clusters to use different VM ID ranges? For example cluster 1 could use 1000-1999and cluster 2000-2999.

Thank you,
J.
 
Not in a supported way. You should just setup two different datastores on PBS, even if they point to same location:
/datastore/cluster1
/datastore/cluster2

That way you are assured there will be no collisions even if someone picks a duplicate ID manually.

Thank you for your reply. I will have a look into that.
