![]() ![]() So, what are my options here? Or is the rpi just not going to work for what I want?ĮDIT: Here is my memtest $ rclone memtest /home/pi/Backups/ģ 12:20:48 34112 objects took 21864480 bytes, 641.0 bytes/objectģ 12:20:48 System memory changed from 27929724 to 66219132 bytes a change of 38289408 $ rclone memtest backup:pconwellBackupsģ 12:23:33 24021 objects took 8965016 bytes, 373.2 bytes/objectģ 12:23:33 System memory changed from 29043836 to 42421372 bytes a change of 13377536 bytes no-traverse does not work with sync because sync has to traverse to work. This runs fine for a bit but then errors with fatal error: runtime: out of memory.Īfter reading some other posts, it looks like that error is probably caused by traversing the source to see what needs to be deleted. So, I curently run the backups as $ rclone -transfers 2 -bwlimit 250K -no-traverse sync /source backup:destination. I understand that the rpi is fairly limited compared to even an old (OLD) recycled server. ![]() I am currently trying to set up an rpi to run rclone and backup to backblaze b2. ![]() My two workstations are backed up locally to the server, which is fine - but I want to backup my backups off site. So, one rpi as DNS/DHCP server, one rpi as file server/backup server, one rpi as web server, etc. My goal is to get away from the old hardware that is running the current server (super energy wasteful and loud) and migrate to a few raspberry pis running each service on a separate rpi. I have two Windows 10 machines that use the samba shared drive as a backup location for the native windows backup utility. I have a local linux server that acts as a samba file server (amongst a few other tasks). Large users (like you) who refer less technical friends (like yours) with less data average out acceptably.I’m not sure if this qualifies as a bug or a limitation of rpi - but here’s my issue: The catch is it’s aimed at flat-rate backup for users who favor simplicity. One that’s still willing is Backblaze with their own client. Very few companies want to lose money by providing storage below their costs. Sia Decentralized Cloud is the Duplicati setting, however forum reliability reports haven’t been that good, possibly due to the sometimes-there-sometimes-not nature of their backends in spite of the redundancy. That $2 price is from their own web site, however I found other numbers on other sites that track pricing. This might bring price down from $5-$6/TB/month for inexpensive traditional storage such as Backblaze B2 or Wasabi, to $2/TB/month, however cryptocurrency (and possible speculation) is typically involved. In the realm of emerging technologies that try to undercut traditional cloud storage from companies that purchase their own drives, there’s decentralized storage such as Sia, Storj, and others that rent storage from those who have extra, and resell it (in a more presentable more-available form) to those needing it. I don’t know if this fits your usage pattern, and it can be tricky.įilter: older than x days would help with this plan, but such a filter isn’t built-in yet, so you use scripting… Possibly this would work poorly with VM images anyway (scattered changes). Some people also try to divide backup source based on use, to try to get online backup of changed files, while letting old files get a different backup. There’s also a question of how much of the 10TB backup you want to lose at once if the backup breaks. This would probably be best done by dividing your 10TB into smaller chunks, one per destination, which would be good anyway because a single 10TB backup with Duplicati might call for special care such as Choosing sizes in Duplicati so that performance (including that of recreate) doesn’t die from the scaling. If online doesn’t work, maybe a carry-it-yourself rotation of 2 or 3 drives to friend or future job would do? This can hurt the “off-site” goal unless 2/3 off-site-at-a-time is enough or you buy lots of drives to rotate. I have some really lovely friends, but not many who are truly technical…
