I agree that restoring from remote would assume the local manifest is unavailable requiring access to the remote copy, but I was referring to the ability to do incremental backups without having to pull the remote manifest from glacier or keep it stored in S3. If you are doing an incremental backup from a source wouldn't a reasonable assumption be that a local manifest file could be used? Currently duplicity tries to pull the remote manifest in order to do a incremental backup and because of how AWS glacier works it hangs, which is why I have the conditional store the manifest in standard S3 storage, but ideally all files would be stored in glacier and a local manifest could be used for incremental backups. > >Also while looking at this code it does not seem there is any command > checking for exclusive storage options.

Yea if I get some free time I will push a patch for that. -- https://code.launchpad.net/~brandon753-ba/duplicity/aws-glacier/+merge/364306 Your team duplicity-team is subscribed to branch lp:duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
