Dear all,
as there is no separate list for the Proxmox Backup Server I hope to find some
help here.
TL;DR: On the pulling server, I cannot see the datastore that is the source for
the job. Permissions?
Situation:
I have two servers named corvus and cygnus.
corvus:
- corvus is the main backup server where my PVE cluster puts the daily backups.
- The datastore has different namespaces for daily and weekly backups.
- There are two additional users configured, one for the PVE cluster (pve@pbs),
the other one for
cygnus (cygnus@pbs). Both are managed by the Proxmox Backup authentication
server.
- cygnus@pbs has the RemoteSyncOperator permissions on the corvus datastore.
cygnus:
- Shall pull the weekly backups for long term storage.
- Datastore has currently no namespaces yet.
- Has no additional users (yet).
- corvus was added to the "remotes" using the credentials from cygnus@pbs on
corvus.
So, when I try to create a pull sync job on cygnus' datastore I can select
Source Remote "corvus"
but I cannot select a Source Datastore.
My impression is that either the permissions for cygnus@pbs on corvus are wrong
or that the
communication between the two hosts does not work.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any logs regarding the communication between the
hosts, neither
positive nor negative.
So I assume that the issue lies with the permissions.
As I am currently playing around as root@pam I don't think that the local
permissions are relevant.
Any suggestions what permissions are missing on cygnus@pbs on corvus? Any ideas
on debugging this?
Thanks, I appreciate any input.
