Hello everyone,
 
I came to Ceph from ZFS world. In ZFS I can use snapshots as backup way. Keep 
it localy or send to another server/pool.
 
Is it possible to do it the same using Ceph?
 
Right now in my cluster I use RBD and CephFS.
 
RBD data structure:
 
Ceph pools
    pool proxmox_metadata Rep SSD
    pool proxmox_data EC SSD 
 
storage.cfg
    rbd: ceph_rbd
        content images
        data-pool proxmox_data
        pool proxmox_metadata
 
Ceph pools
    pool proxmox_data_1_ssd_other_hdd R 1 SSD 2 HDD
 
storage.cfg
    rbd: ceph_rbd_1ssd_hdd
        content images
        pool proxmox_data_1_ssd_other_hdd
 
 
CephFS data structure:
 
Ceph pools
    pool cephfs_metadata Rep SSD
    pool cephfs_data Rep SSD
    pool web_data EC SSD
    pool db_data EC SSD
    pool data EC HDD
 
# ceph fs ls
    name: cephfs, metadata pool: cephfs_metadata, data pools: [cephfs_data 
web_data db_data data ] 
 
 
subvolumegroup  | data_pool   | subvolume
home            | web_data    | nmz
....
db              | db_data     | sql
persoanl        | data        | Video
....
 
As you can see subvolumes use specific ceph pools. For every subvolume I use 
snapshots. 
 
 
Ceph backup server will work in cold mode, single node, not 24/7.
 
What is the best way to send data to backup server ?
 
I want to use incremental backup sync. Can I achieve it ? 
 
 
Thanks
