Time Machine is built into current Mac OSes. It wants its own disk, which
should be a bit (or a lot) bigger than the one you are backing up. I don’t
think it can backup to another machine. It works well, since it’s baked in.

Am I mis-interpreting some of the basic params regarding

Config values are at bottom, since lengthy.

reserve 30 # percent ## (this is MY value)

Also, you would specify a sub-directory on the filesystem,
