download debian file from: http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pbs-client/dists/bullseye/main/
the correct file to choose is: proxmox-backup-client-static_3.4.7-1_amd64.deb
go to the folder where you downloaded it and run it with:
sudo apt install ./proxmox-backup-client-static_3.4.7-1_amd64.deb
create a hidden folder on your home where you will store the login credentials for the Proxmox Backup Server on which you will save the backups.
in my case I created the following in my home directory with
mkdir .config/proxmox-backup-client/root@192.168.123.124:8007
inside it create the .config file containing the configuration for accessing the PBS
in my case i named it SERVERHP.cfg
nano SERVERHP.cfg
populate it with the following data:
user=root@pam (user who has access to PBS)
password=”password” (the password you use to access PBS without the quotes)
fingerprint=”serverpringerfing” (PBS fingerprint you use to access PBS without the quotes)
save CTRL+O exit CTRL+X
To create the backup you need to run from the command line
Let’s say I want to create a backup of the /mnt/CONDIVISA folder and I want to name the backup “condivisa” (the name of the backup we will create must be expressed with the .pxar extension)
- in my case the datastore on PBS is called “SERVERHP”
- PBS has ip 192.168.123.124
- I chose the “host” backup mode which is recommended for an instant test backup
(without sudo command)
proxmox-backup-client backup condivisa.pxar:/mnt/CONDIVISA \
–repository root@pam@192.168.123.124:SERVERHP \
–backup-type host
