@giacomo and @edoardo_spadoni are working on improving the current implementation of backup-data in order to add some requested features like:
- new storage backends
- encryption
- multiple scheduled backups.
We know that NethServer users have been waiting a long time for that features. Finally, we did it but that’s just a first implementation. We need your feedback to improve and finalize it
The new implementation is based on different backends:
- duplicity
- restic
- rsync (TimeMachine)
Features of multiple backups are:
- a backup can be scheduled multiple time a day
- customization of include and exclude
- notifications
- multiple backends: duplicity and restic
- retention policy
Restic specific features:
- storage backends: sFTP, S3, B2, REST server
- encryption
Rsync specific features:
- storage backends: sFTP
Known Limitations:
- no backup/restore UI for multiple backups
- restore-config from backup-data has been removed
- webdav is not supported by multiple backup
- disk usage report is not supported by multiple backup
- push configuration backup to backup directory is not supported by multiple backup
@giacomo can we test something already?
