Backup Analytics ¶
Track and analyze backup job performance across Proxmox VE clusters. Surfaces success rates, duration patterns, storage consumption and — crucially — what is not being backed up.
Features¶
-
Job Status
Monitor backup job execution and completion status across cluster nodes.
-
Performance Metrics
Track backup duration, throughput, and resource usage patterns.
-
RPO Blind Spots
Dedicated views for guests and disks not covered by any backup job — find the gaps before they bite you.
-
Historical Data
View backup trends and patterns over time for capacity planning.
-
Failure Logs
Access detailed logs and error information for failed backup jobs.
-
Storage Metrics
Monitor backup storage consumption and growth trends.
Why¶
Why analytics when PVE already shows backup jobs?
What you're NOT backing up
The Unprotected Guests / Disks views surface VMs and disks that no job covers — the real reason silent data loss happens.
One view per cluster
Backups, schedule, timeline and trends roll up across nodes and storages — no per-node UI grepping.
Trends, not snapshots
Charts over time tell you whether duration is creeping up, storage is filling, or a job started failing weeks ago without anybody noticing.
Failure context, not just rows
Failed runs link straight to logs and error messages — find out why one VM keeps failing without SSH-ing into the node.
Sections¶
- Backups — per-VM backup history with date, size, duration, status and storage
- Scheduled — configured backup jobs with schedule, target storage and selection
- Unprotected Guests — VMs/CTs not covered by any backup job — your RPO blind spots
- Unprotected Disks — disks excluded from backup (e.g.
backup=0) on otherwise protected guests - Backup in line — timeline view of backup runs across nodes/storages
- Trends — charts of backup size, duration and success rate over time
