+  <h2>{{ .Title }}</h2>

+  <p>My homelab is still in a state of confusion, hardware will need to change location, and it's time for a reshuffling of hardware. But for now, I wanted to at least have a real backup of my mini server. Everything has been set up, I just have been having issues with <code>rsync</code>.</p>

+  <p>I think I remember one day I gave up and decided to run <code>rsync</code> as is without any pre-commands shuffling files arround for me. I vaguely remember this going horribly due to <code>ssh</code> connection timeout and extremely slow file transfer speeds resulting in a partial copy.</p>

+  <p>Aparently this was either just a dream, I did actually get it to complete, or the computers liked something about today. I'm not sure. <code>rsync-prelude</code> didn't seem to recurse, as I ran into before, so I just sent it using <code>rsync</code> as-is again, and it worked. Or at least it seems to have. I picked through several old "problem" directories along with ones that I knew were recent, and everything seems to be there.</p>

+  <p>This is good enough for me right now, so I installed a <code>crontab</code> and I'll monitor things over the next few days. I'm not going to bother with bi-directional backup, but it will be nice to have local gigabit speeds when at home trying to download.</p>

+  <p>I'll update on the status after a week or so, but for now, I've actually got a working backup.</p>
