Hi,

I'm trying to setup a sync job between my proxmox backup server and a second proxmox backup server on a different location.
All the data is stored on pbs-local and I want to sync it to pbs-remote. I configured Remotes and Sync Jobs on the offsite backup server, pbs-remote. Because it will pull the data from the local backup server, correct?

I set up Remotes on pbs-remote with a user I created on pbs-local, with DatastorePowerUser permissions on the datastore. Afterwards I created a sync job on pbs-remote and I found the source datastore. But when I run the sync job, it doesn't find any groups. I get this error:

Code:
2024-04-01T13:36:22+02:00: Starting datastore sync job 'pbs-local:syno:zfs1::s-afc6a1ac-1a34'
2024-04-01T13:36:22+02:00: sync datastore 'zfs1' from 'pbs-local/syno'
2024-04-01T13:36:22+02:00: ----
2024-04-01T13:36:22+02:00: Syncing datastore 'syno', root namespace into datastore 'zfs1', root namespace
2024-04-01T13:36:23+02:00: found 0 groups to sync (out of 0 total)
2024-04-01T13:36:23+02:00: Finished syncing namespace , current progress: 0 groups, 0 snapshots
2024-04-01T13:36:23+02:00: sync job 'pbs-local:syno:zfs1::s-afc6a1ac-1a34' end
2024-04-01T13:36:23+02:00: TASK OK

'syno' is the name of the datastore on pbs-local and zfs1 is the name of the destination datastore on pbs-remote.
I even tried giving the Remote user admin rights on /, but it made no difference.

What is wrong about my setup?
