Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) - Backups via NAS to GDrive (Decoupled, Monitored & Encrypted)#

This guide is intended for off-site disaster recovery (DR) copies, not as a primary backup destination.

This documentation covers a decoupled, stage-based architecture: The PBS Method (Deduplicated Datastore on NAS): The Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) host HP1BackupServer (10.1.1.211) mounts a local NAS share under proper system ownership (uid=34) to run a fully deduplicated backup datastore. A dedicated sync container MMDocker (10.1.2.230) mounts the same share to asynchronously push the deduplicated chunk structure to Google Drive via an optimized rclone sync script.
