FAQ
Q: Can I upgrade Proxmox Backup Server 2.x to 2.4 with GUI (or apt)?
A: Yes
Q: How does this integrate into Proxmox Virtual Environment?
A: Just add a Proxmox Backup Server datastore as a new storage target in
your Proxmox VE. Make sure that you run the latest Proxmox VE 7.x.
Q: How do I install the proxmox-backup-client on my Debian or Ubuntu server?
A: We provide a "Proxmox Backup Client-only Repository", see
https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/installation.html#client-installation
Q: What will happen with the existing backup tool (vzdump) in Proxmox
Virtual Environment?
A: You can still use vzdump. The new backup is an additional, but very
powerful way to backup and restore your VMs and containers.
Q: Is there any recommended server hardware for the Proxmox Backup Server?
A: We recommend enterprise-grade server hardware components, with fast
local SSD/NVMe storage. Access and response times from rotating drives
will slow down all backup server operations. See
https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/installation.html#recommended-server-system-requirements
Q: Can I install Proxmox Backup Server on Debian, in a VM, as LXC or
alongside with Proxmox VE?
A: Yes, but all this is not the recommended setup (expert use only).
Q: Where can I get more information about upcoming features?
A: Follow the announcement forum and pbs-devel mailing list
https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pbs-devel, and
subscribe to our newsletter https://www.proxmox.com/news and see
