Hi,
I am running PVE on a machine that has 3 1gb and 2 10gb ports. The admin interface sits on a 1gb interface management VLAN. I have a proxmox backup server and NAS instances running elsewhere on my network, same VLAN but has 10gb capability. How can I force PVE to use a 10gb interface for faster backup/storage. Thanks.
 
AFAIK you can't specify backup/storage interface. If you can.. adjust the IP range you're using for storage to be different than management and then simply connect over the non-management IP range.
Don't forget to adjust migration settings to use the storage network as well, under Datacenter -> Options -> Migration settings.
