    zfs backup with remote capabilities and mbuffer integration.

  • Hi, I'm using zfs on my home server since years. (Proxmox host). Never had any problems, I'm using https://www.znapzend.org/ for automatic snapshot which are cheap (time and required space) and they get synced with my backup server.

  • scorch

    Silent CORruption CHecker and filesystem audit tool

  • Lastly, you could just point scorch (https://github.com/trapexit/scorch) at your drives and run it on a cron or systemd timer - just have the script alert you with an e-mail or whatever your preferred method is. Not ideal but probably less work than rebuilding two arrays because you don't like the format of error messages.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
