Nope, can do everything[0][1][2]! You can do file-based backups also. The client is a statically linked binary and runs on every relatively current Linux with an amd64 based CPU, so it doesn't even has to be a Debian server. cheers, Thomas [0]: besides file-based backup filesystems not accessible in Linux, yet ;) [1]: https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/administration-guide.html#creating-backups [2]: https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/introduction.html#main-features _______________________________________________ pve-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
