But that is work for the futures ... Tape support would be truly fantastic! We are still using storix for our tape backups, and have been looking for an alternative for a couple of years now. Being able to use Proxmox Backup Server as storix replacement would be great. We have one bare-metal linux server that we are also backing up to tape using storix. I guess when adopting Proxmox Backup Server, we would need to find a new solution for that bare-metal server? (as in: Proxmox Backup Server is *only* capable to backup VM's, right..?) Proxmox Backup Server is a great addition to the proxmox line of products! Thanks a lot! MJ
