Backup Server Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The command line tool to configure and manage the server is called
|
|
|
|
|
:command:`proxmox-backup-manager`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Datastore Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A :term:`datastore` is a place to store backups. You can configure
|
|
|
|
|
several datastores, but you need at least one of them. The datastore is identified by a simple `name` and point to a directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following command creates a new datastore called ``store1`` on :file:`/backup/disk1/store1`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager datastore create store1 /backup/disk1/store1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To list existing datastores use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager datastore list
|
|
|
|
|
store1 /backup/disk1/store1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, it is also possible to remove the datastore configuration:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# proxmox-backup-manager datastore remove store1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Above command removes the datastore configuration. It does
|
|
|
|
|
not delete any data from the underlying directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Backup Client Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The command line client is called :command:`proxmox-backup-client`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Respository Locations
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The client uses a special repository notation to specify a datastore
|
|
|
|
|
on the backup server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[[username@]server:]datastore
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you do not specify a ``username`` the default is ``root@pam``. The
|
|
|
|
|
default for server is to use the local host (``localhost``).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can pass the repository by setting the ``--repository`` command
|
|
|
|
|
line options, or by setting the ``PBS_REPOSITORY`` environment
|
|
|
|
|
variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``PBS_REPOSITORY``
|
|
|
|
|
The default backup repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``PBS_PASSWORD``
|
|
|
|
|
When set, this value is used for the password required for the
|
|
|
|
|
backup server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``PBS_ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD``
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When set, this value is used to access the secret encryption key (if
|
|
|
|
|
protected by password).
