Hi
running HAOS in ProxMox.
Due to braking changes in nginx addon,
I decided to create a new machine on my ProxMox
After Initialization the new instance, I could not upload the (large 4GB) backup file over the html interface: timed out. Probably due to the size of the image
So next:
- HA-backup of my production system “A”
- create NEW HAOS instance in ProxMox: “B”
- copy HA-backup file from old system “A” to new system “B” via Samba-addon and accessing both systems over a (windows) network drive
- restore HA-backup on new system.
However,
If I copy my file from “A” to “B”:
- the file exists on the file system in the correct directory (see screenshot below)
- but is not recognized in “B” as a backup file…
I already
- rebooted “B” several times
- chmod -x “backupfile.tar” on system “B” (as I noticed that a new backup made on B has no excecute rights)
still, the new backup file from “A” is not recognized in Home Assistant GUI on “B”:
So questions:
- how create a fresh installation from a backup?
- how to upload a large file in the gui (by drag & drop in the onboarding process) without time out
- how to restore backup file from other system
PS
I know I can create a ProxMox backup, but because another issue:
I want to do a restore by a regular HA backup/restore
