Hi all,
I recently setup a Proxmox backup server and had configured an LTO6 drive which worked for backup/restore from the datastore. Sadly the drive failed so I replaced it with LTO8 and found it couldn't read the old LTO6 tapes.
I ended up deleting the old media using
The new LTO8 drive seems to be working OK with a new backup job completing successful:
The problem I have is the "Pool/Media-Set/Snapshot" content page shows only the date of the backup but no snapshots to restore.
Clicking on the restore icon shows an empty lis of snapshots:
I tried to export the current media thinking it was holding some lock on the media-set catalog but that didn't help.
Software versions:
I'm at a loss and was hoping someone had some ideas on how to troubleshoot this. Thanks.
