Sure is ;-) Disclaimer: not to deeply tested yet though. https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-qemu.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches/pve/0044-PVE-Add-PBS-block-driver-to-map-backup-archives-into.patch;h=855cc2207aea67fab330f2a205ddb92322bd4fb0;hb=3499c5b45a30a3489ca0d688d2d391fdfe899861#l116 Short procedure example to use it could look somewhat like: # modprobe nbd # export PBS_PASSWORD='12345supersecure!!!' # export PBS_FINGERPRINT=00:b4:b5:50... (above could be also passed directly as option, but well) # proxmox-backup-client list --repository root@[email protected]:datastore # qemu-nbd --connect=/dev/nbd0 -f raw -r pbs:repository=root@[email protected]:datastore,snapshot=vm/108/2020-07-14T09:03:47Z,archive=drive-scsi0.img.fidx # lsblk /dev/nbd0 # mkdir /mnt/test # mount /dev/nbd0 /mnt/test _______________________________________________ pve-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user
