Firstly, thanks to the Proxmox dev's for an amazing product. I rarely post because the system is rock solid and I have not had any problems for years, until recently whilst attempting an in place upgrade from 5.4 to 6
Some details around the config. I think very simple deployment.
Home/home office setup for work and educational purposes
Proxmox install to SSD. VM's are hosted via NFS to a FreeNAS server
The Proxmox server also has 3X3TB hard drive (ZFS) for hosting backups from the FreeNAS system back to the Proxmox server, Proxmox VM backups are also kept on the NFS share (FreeNAS) so get passed back to the Proxmox server.
I recently decided to upgrade from 5.4 to 6.x attempting the in place upgrade but has only partially worked leaving the ZFS pool unavailable. I now want to do a full re-install of Proxmox, however, the guidance states "make a full backup of all VM's" (or similar). If I have my VM;s hosted on an NFS share do I still need to backup ?
Many thanks
