[pve-devel] [PATCH v3 manager/container/guest-common/docs 0/5] fix #3069: add pbs-entries-max to vzdump.conf

[Alexander Zeidler]

Users reported[1] about failing container backups to PBS when having a large amount of files in a directory.

proxmox-backup-client has already 'entries-max' implemented. The default value prevents out of memory (OOM) situations. Overriding this parameter needs at least 'Sys.Modify' permissions.

This patch series makes the new optional performance parameter 'pbs-entries-max' available in vzdump and vzdump.conf.
