Restic is a great piece of software. I use it for more than two years now to do encrypted backups of my home server into Backblaze B2. Took minutes to set up with a couple of lines of script, works like a charm since then. Highly recommended!
- argiope 5y agoSame here! Really happy with the setup. Got an Odroid HC2 doing daily backups to Backblaze B2. The thing doesn't even sweat scanning around 1TB of data. I find the automated pruning of old snapshots also pretty sleek: restic forget --keep-daily 7 --keep-weekly 5 --keep-monthly 12 --keep-yearly 75
- johntash 5y agoJust a heads up in case you aren't already aware, 'restic forget' does not automatically prune data. You also need to pass --prune or run 'restic prune' later. Other wise, your snapshots are dropped from the index but the data used by them still exists in the repo.
