Changing the Owner of a Backup Group
------------------------------------
By default, the owner of a backup group is the user which was used to originally
create that backup group (or in the case of sync jobs, ``root@pam``). This
means that if a user ``mike@pbs`` created a backup, another user ``john@pbs``
can not be used to create backups in that same backup group. In case you want
to change the owner of a backup, you can do so with the below command, using a
user that has ``Datastore.Modify`` privileges on the datastore.
.. code-block:: console
# proxmox-backup-client change-owner vm/103 john@pbs
This can also be done from within the web interface, by navigating to the
`Content` section of the datastore that contains the backup group and
selecting the user icon under the `Actions` column. Common cases for this could
be to change the owner of a sync job from ``root@pam``, or to repurpose a
backup group.
