I’m particularly interested in low bandwidth solutions. My connection to the internet is pretty rough 20mbps down and 1mbps up with no option to upgrade.
That said, this isn’t limited to low bandwidth solutions.
I’m planning on redoing my entire setup soon to run on Kubernetes followed by expanding the scope of what my server does (Currently plex, a sftp server and local client backups). Before i do that i need a proper offsite backup solution.
Might not fit into your plans but if you run Proxmox you can easily backup to an offsite computer (or VM) running Proxmox Backup Server (PBS).
From their website:
I use PBS, and send the backups to Backblaze R2 with rsync. Works great.
You self host BPS on the same server where your proxmox PvE is and you just use as storage for the BPS backblaze?
Nah, I have a pi4 that runs pbs, standing next to the Future S740 which runs PVE. The pi mirrors the backups to R2
Could probably even use my old pi3 for it, but I’m lazy ;) it required some hacks getting pbs running on ARM.
That’s awesome. Do you care to share said hacks to run PBS on ARM? 😊
I’m currently running PBS in a VM on PVE with a dedicated harddrive pass through, but looking to change to something more robust
This has some discussion and tips about compiling it yourself.
This has the docker-files that resulted from the discussion, and instructions how to extract the deb files for bare-metal installation.
I tried compiling several times, but couldn’t get it to work, so I finally just used the deb files.
