{{ .Title }}

+

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 rsync.

+

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

+

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. rsync-prelude didn't seem to recurse, as I ran into before, so I just sent it using rsync 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.

+

This is good enough for me right now, so I installed a crontab 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.

+

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