Thanks for the feedback admin-at-extremeshok! I am new to this and I appreciate some details. What I understand is that PVE will create backups of VMs and Containers on regular basis then a shell script is needed to compress and encrypt the file for upload. If a file is encrypted and compressed can a I still do incremental backup?
My next question is regarding PVE backup process, and I am wondering if I can backup Windows VMs without suspending them. I mean the full OS. Thanks.
