PBS Client Only

[hodgiers]

Thank you for this! Does the script leave an option for installing the client only? Would greatly appreciate the choice to install the client or server if not.

Yes.

Long story:

The script only builds the packages and copies them to the packages folder. Afterwards you can install the packages you want on the host you want. Install them from the packages directory with:

• Server:

  sudo apt install \
  ./libjs-extjs_*_all.deb \
  ./libjs-qrcodejs_*_all.deb \
  ./libproxmox-acme-plugins_*_all.deb \
  ./pbs-i18n_*_all.deb \
  ./proxmox-backup-docs_*_all.deb \
  ./proxmox-backup-server_*_arm64.deb \
  ./proxmox-mini-journalreader_*_arm64.deb \
  ./proxmox-widget-toolkit_*_all.deb \
  ./pve-xtermjs_*_arm64.deb

• Client:

  sudo apt install \
  ./proxmox-backup-client_*_arm64.deb \
  # Optional: ./proxmox-backup-file-restore_*_arm64.deb

  Or push the package files to a apt package repository and install them from there:

• Server:

  sudo apt install proxmox-backup-server

• Client:

  sudo apt install proxmox-backup-client  # Optional: proxmox-backup-file-restore

  I hope the commands are correct. I have NOT tested the ones installing directly from packages directory.

As an overview, the following packages are built and copied (at the moment):

Thank you for the listing. I built the packages and installed just the server packages. Worked great on an RPi4 Ubuntu 22.04. Arm64 PBS is running very well as sync PBS. Thanks for this!
