XO Proxy: Local remotes are disabled in proxies

[chr1st0ph9]

Hello,
I'm trying to set up a new proxy-based backup storage. But even though I'm able to select a local storage, after validation XOA says “Local remotes are disabled in proxies”.
Is there a problem with my installation or is this the normal behavior?
Thanks for your help

Best Regards,
Christophe

@chr1st0ph9 Local remotes are disabled by default for XO Proxies because they can be confusing: they are local to the XO Proxy itself and not the XOA they are defined in.

You can enable them by creating a config file on the XO Proxy Appliance, /etc/xo-proxy/config.toml:

[remotes]
disableFileRemotes = false

@julien-f Merciiii

my config.toml file was located under /root/.config/xo-proxy
after restarting xo-proxy.service, I was able to use its local storage as a backup target.
It's cleaner than creating an NFS loopback
