Hello list I have a VM KVM with Linux Ubuntu 14.04 running in PVE 4.1. Everything is fine. This VM is our Zimbra Mail Server in which we have about 1 000 accounts. The amount of disk space is about 1,4 TB. As can you see, with a bug partition like this, it's very difficult to make and mantain backups... And, to worst eerything, vzdump backup tooks so long to make a backup... What recommendation can you,guys, point to me to mitigate such situation? I will grateful for any advice [Ulrich Huber] Bacula was already mentioned – but which filesystem are you using at the PVE-Host and within the guest? Some Filesystems allow shadow copy, so there is no need to suspend the host…. [Ulrich Huber] Another idea is rsnapshot – I do use this for staggered Backups. Usually, I use an iscsi-share, mount this share, make the snapshot, unmount and make another copy of the unmounted share on tape. Or you try with lvm and lvm-shanpshots…. You can combine the idea of creating an md-Raid with iscsi (using the iscsi as mirror-disk, break the mirror, copy the second disk to backup, reestablish the mirror and start a remirroring… (but I have no idea about performance, I never tried this – just a theoretical approach…) Maybe there are some more ideas: http://serverfault.com/questions/231073/linux-equivalent-for-windows-shadow-copies - _______________________________________________ pve-user mailing list [email protected] http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-user -- Gilberto Ferreira +55 (47) 9676-7530 Skype: gilberto.nunes36
