what is proxmox-backup fr?

Proxmox Backup Server is a specialized piece of software for making regular copies of virtual machines and containers. This project packages that software inside a Docker container, making it possible to run a full Proxmox Backup Server on any machine that supports Docker, without needing to install it directly on the host system. The main appeal of this approach is simplicity. You start the container with a short command or a Docker Compose file, open a browser to port 8007, log in with the username root and a password you set yourself, and the full Proxmox Backup Server web interface is waiting for you. From there, you can manage backup schedules, monitor backup jobs, and handle restores. The server handles backups efficiently by only saving what has changed since the last backup run, rather than copying everything from scratch each time. It also deduplicates data, meaning identical blocks are stored only once, which saves disk space when backing up multiple similar virtual machines. You can store backups locally, on a network-attached storage device, or in cloud storage. For people already running Proxmox VE, the virtualization platform, this server integrates directly with it. You can schedule and trigger backups from the main Proxmox VE interface rather than managing them separately. The same developer also offers Docker-packaged versions of Proxmox VE, Proxmox Datacenter Manager, and Proxmox Mail Gateway. Setup involves providing a password as an environment variable and mapping two folders on your host machine: one for configuration files and one for backup data. The container is available on Docker Hub and can also be opened in GitHub Codespaces for quick testing. This project is not affiliated with Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH.
