Hello
On our two PROXMOX servers version 8.2.2 do we have a compile problem with veeam blksnap.
Code:
dkms install -m blksnap -v 6.1.0.1498

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.8.4-2-pve (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/blksnap/6.1.0.1498/build/make.log for more information.

I tried to understand the log /var/lib/dkms/blksnap/6.1.0.1498/build/make.log, but i couldn't find a solution so far.

From log above it seems that issue related to Veeam Agent's code.
When they fix it - who knows.

It might be some one better in this as me? Thanks for any help!

Hey @littlesatno,
big thanks, that helped me a lot and i got it working.
Step 4. was a bit confusing, maybe there is a typo in there.

Another short question: Do you know when you back-up the whole pve, does that include mounted devices? Like a NAS with NFS. Because i get snapshot overflow errors when i run the backup.
If you don't have a answer i will open a new thread with my question.

hi softwald:
I am glad to hear that it was useful for you and thx for the hint about step for (the two commands have been on two separte lines)
as far as I noticed, mounted devices are not included. I say that because I have also mounted my NAS (not sure if I have it mounted as NFS now but I had when I started with proxmox and might have switched to smb mounts. edit: just checked it and now I only mount as cifs) and have no issues.
