The filesets are nearly static, so the the backup duration is nearly identical each day. Between 22 and 30 minutes for 21-systems. But there are also days, with a longer backup durations.
In some special cases is a VM accessible over NAT and on different port as usually 22.
In this case – SSH is running on port 222.
This make the rsync operation little bit complexer:
1 | rsync -vraze 'ssh -p 222' root@remote:/source/ /destination/ |
Last week I bought a new HDD for one friend and I started a rsync process on my tiny home-server to copy some stuff – it was around 190 GB of different stuff.
This command looks very simple and without unnecessary options but my 400 MHz CPU was pretty quick hot and I got a [Read more…]
Another different method to create your backups over network, a client data establish a connection to a rsync daemon server.
I describe a simple method without authentication (trusted LAN). [Read more…]
