backuping up linux

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/OpenMediaVault

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • BorgBackup

    Deduplicating archiver with compression and authenticated encryption.

  • Make a favor for yourself and use either borg or kopia (i switching now from borg due to kopia is multiplatform and has much more backend) instead of rsync (as well its wrappers liky luckybackup and timeshift). While it it still a very good tool and can be used as backup (especially with utilization of --link-dest) it can't do de-duplication as well you can easily push incremental, dedublicated backup to other repositories besides of OMV. With kopia just give it ssh credentials to some share on OMV and and use sftp backend, then run it on cron periodically.

  • kopia

    Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS & Linux with fast, incremental backups, client-side end-to-end encryption, compression and data deduplication. CLI and GUI included.
