Proxmox - Move Backups

[bgagnon]

Hello -

With existing VMware backups, you have a couple options:

- Edit the job and change the repository and click OK; a prompt pops up asking if you want to move want move your backups to the new repository and you can say yes

- Go to the Backups -> Disk, right click your job and click "Move" - and pick a new repo

With Proxmox, neither of these works; you can change the job destination, but it doesn't move your backups or backup chain, and if you right click the backup on disk, move is greyed out; you can only "copy" (which does not tie back to the original job if you change the job).

After a bit of research, I did come across this: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbr/u ... tml?ver=13

And specifically: "You cannot move backups created by Veeam Plug-Ins for Enterprise Applications, Veeam Cloud Plug-Ins (Veeam Backup for AWS, Veeam Backup for Google Cloud*, Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure), Veeam Plug-In for Nutanix AHV, Veeam Plug-In for oVirt KVM*, Veeam Plug-In for Proxmox VE and Veeam Kasten."

Is there any change this is going to be added? We don't "move" repositories often, but it's still handy to have.

Thanks!

Hello, Brad,

Yes, you are correct, it is not supported as of today, but it is planned to be implemented in future versions. I can't provide any ETAs, though.

Hello, we're missing the oppurtunity to move existing jobs / backup chains to a different target the same way as we could do it with VMWare.
When will this feature be integrated in Veeam?
Greetings

Hi schuetduis,

Merged your post with an existing topic. Consider the request noted, but no ETA at this time.
