About this course

A full-day, practical workshop on Proxmox Backup Server. You learn how deduplication and incremental backups actually work, how to encrypt data at rest, and how to build a restore strategy you can trust under pressure.

The afternoon is dedicated to restore drills: you will recover VMs, containers and individual files from a deliberately damaged datastore and learn what to check before you ever need to.
