Feature Request: Proxmox Backup to cloud repository

[edvxpert]

Hi,
we would like to backup Proxmox directly to a cloud repository.

Currently it is only possible to backup to a local repository and add a backup copy job to the cloud repository.

Thank you!

Hi, have you considered hosting an object storage based repository to achieve the same?

[edvxpert]

Hi,
we have some small customers that do not want to store their backups locally. They want us to keep their backups as we are a cloud connect provider.

[Gostev]

Yes but have you considered hosting an object storage for them to use? Or reselling something like Wasabi? This lets you achieve the same result while avoiding the overhead of managing a cloud connect infrastructure.

I make the same suggestion to Proxmox directly yo Cloud Connect or in my case it's a configured Service Provider ! Have a great day!

Here is the ticket that requested that I do a feature request


After reviewing the case history I see that you are unable to select a cloud repository to directly backup a Proxmox host.

Per the link below this is by design. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbpro ... html?ver=1

Veeam Backup for Proxmox VE does not support storing backups in Veeam Cloud Connect and HPE Cloud Bank Storage repositories. However, you can use them for storing copies of backups created with Veeam Backup for Proxmox VE. Backup copies can be stored on Cloud Connect repository: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbpro ... html?ver=1

At this time, we don't have any information whether direct backup to cloud connect repositories is going to be implemented or not. If this is an important feature for you, I recommend submitting a feature request on our forum https://forums.veeam.com/ by creating a topic marked as FeatureRequest and stating the desired change. Our Product Management Team is actively engaged in the forums and would be happy to discuss your request.
