Hi,

I've acquired a new server for my homelab. On the old server, I had secured all my VMs via Datacenter > Backups. Afterward, I downloaded the backup directory /var/lib/vz/dumps to my PC.

The latest version of PVE was installed on the new server, and the backup files were uploaded to the directory /var/lib/vz/dumps on the new server. Now, when I go to Datacenter > Backups, the backups are not displayed: https://prnt.sc/0DjkI12_Tdfm

Do I need to do something beforehand, or is there a misunderstanding on my part?
 
You are on the backup jobs page. You have to switch to the storage view on the node itself, not the storage view in the datacenter. So open the node and then select the corresponding storage. Should be called something with local.
