I've set this up on on a [[Proxmox]] backup machine, it creates the [[OpenZFS|zfs]] snapshots on the remote machine and them pulls them into it's own zfs pool.
|
|
|
|
## initial setup
|
|
|
|
install Sanoid on backup and source host (not strictly required on both, but Sanoid uses tools on both machine for fast and reliable connection)
|
|
```
|
|
apt install sanoid
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
if you don't run Sanoid on one machine, ensure the following folders are created on it
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir -p /var/cache/sanoid /var/run/sanoid
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
use root accounts for ssh connections, the zfs commands need root access (tried to get it to work without and it was turtles all the way down)
|
|
|
|
add conf files and populate from [github](https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid)
|
|
```
|
|
/etc/sanoid/sanoid.conf
|
|
/etc/sanoid/sanoid.defaults.conf
|
|
/usr/local/bin/zfs-nightly-backup.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
run manual backup (add `--debug` flag for more info)
|
|
```
|
|
syncoid -r --use-hold --preserve-recordsize --preserve-properties root@192.168.1.43:noggapool/music stanleypool/music
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
commands for nightly script
|
|
```
|
|
/usr/sbin/syncoid -r --use-hold --preserve-recordsize --preserve-properties root@pve-thinkstation:noggapool/dataset stanleypool/dataset
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
/usr/sbin/syncoid -r --no-sync-snap --create-bookmark --use-hold --preserve-recordsize --preserve-properties stanleypool/dataset root@pve-shug9:bathpool/dataset
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## scheduled snapshots and prune
|
|
|
|
by default, when installing via `apt` it starts a timer service that executes every 15minutes. for my requirements i need to disable this for now
|
|
```
|
|
systemctl stop timer.sanoid.service
|
|
systemctl disable time.sanoid.service
|
|
```
