Video Description

Proxmox Backup Server is an enterprise-class client-server backup software that backs up virtual machines, containers, and physical hosts. In this step by step tutorial, we install and configure Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) and back up all of our virtual machines. We'll start with nothing and end up with a fully functional Proxmox Backup Server with a ZFS datastore you can use to back up and restore your machines today. **BONUS** We'll even show you have to virtualize Proxmox Backup Server and pass physical disks through to the guest virtual machine.
