[PVE-User] Backup job requires email

[PVE-User] Backup job requires email

[Petric Frank]

Hello,

wanted to create an scheduled backup job via Datacenter -> Backup.

In earlier versions on Proxmox you don't have to give a notification eMail-
address. But now you have to enter one in the field "Send email to:". Also the
field "Email notification" only gives the options "Always" or "On failure only",
but not something like "None".

Actually running Proxmox Virtual Environment 6.3-3

Is this a bug in the web-gui ?

Is there a command line tool to create the job ?

Ok, i can create a cron entry ...

kind regards
  Petric

Hi,
yes, this was a regression and should be fixed with 
libpve-guest-common-perl >= 3.1-5 and libpve-common-perl >= 6.3-4 that 
are available in the no-subscription repository.

Hello,

followup - if the email parameter is not given to the vzdump command no mail
is send. Also no error message about a missing parameter is issued.

So in in my opinion this is a bug of the web GUI. Do you agree ?
