I have not used the tool but it doesn't seem to offer the same intelligence you would get with something like BORG or hashbackup. I did not know about the LX feature so that seems like it can help significantly - trying to get it going but currently unable to login to the zones system! On Thu,

Their Linux tool is working with Backblaze B2, but it's a python tool, not a native closed source application. They do not offer the normal backup agent for anything but Win/Mac. At that point it may be possible to run the pytjon tool directly on OmniOS? I thought about it but never went on

They are .10 per GB. Backblaze is 0.005 per GB. About $2400/yr vs $120/yr. On Wed, Jan 4, 2017 at 7:25 PM, Michael Rasmussen wrote: > On Thu, 5 Jan 2017 01:15:18 +0100 > Michael Rasmussen wrote: > > > Would it be possible to use rsync with backblaze? > > rsync

Not really. There is one tool called rclone. But it will do a full upload on any changed file so does not help. There are some FUSE file systems but I don't believe these will work with Illumos either. I'd really like to avoid moving my pool if I don't have to. OmniOS has been great. On Wed,

You can create an LX zone with the latest stable Omni release, share the dataset(s) with the zone and run the backup agent in there. That's what I'm using for a bunch of things such as Veeam, BeeGFS, and Plex. Works like a charm as long as you don't need extended attribute support. Michael

That is unfortunate. The requirement stems from the need to perform an incremental backup to cloud storage (backblaze). Many of my files are large and sparse (VMs). Unfortunately the only software that I have found to perform the backups runs on BSD or Linux hence the use for NFS. Running the

Hello all, Is there any support for NFS 4.2 in Illumos? I am interested in the Sparse File functionality that has been introduced. Thanks! ___ OmniOS-discuss mailing list OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com
