Hi,

I have 2 PVE (v 8.1) and 1 PBS (3.1) systems in my homelab. I have backups from both PVE systems on the PBS to the same datastore but different namespaces. All backups are owned by root@pam. I want to migrate VMs between the PVE systems using the PBS. The problem is that PVE1 can only list the backups created from PVE1 but NOT those created from PVE2. What do I need to do to have either PVE list and restore backups created by other PVE?

I suspect the solution is with roles and permissions but don’t know which ones I need.
 
you need to setup two storages (one for each namespace) on the PVE side(s)
