I've set this up on on a [[Proxmox]] backup machine, it creates the zfs snapshots on the remote machine and them pulls them into it;s own zfs pool.
|
|
|
|
### the 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 from github to
|
|
`/etc/sanoid/` and setup
|
|
- 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`
|
|
- config files are found here:
|
|
`/etc/sanoid/sanoid.conf`
|
|
`/etc/sanoid/sanoid.defaults.conf`
|
|
`/usr/local/bin/zfs-nightly-backup.sh`
|
|
|
|
### 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`
|
|
