I'm coming from rsync too, hoping for the same good stuff

It's gon b long ass backup script I think!

Good to know if I need to just throw the running database into borg/restic there's a chance it'll come out ok! Def not a dummy, I only found out databases may not like being backed up while running through someone mentioning it offhandedly

Not a bad idea for a hybrid thing, especially people seem to say that a running database backup at least some of the time most of the time with no special shutdown/export effort is readable. And the dedupe stats are really impressive

That is nicely expandable with my docker_compose files, thanks for the find!

Thanks for the incantation! Its looking like something like this is gonna be the way to do it

So you're saying you dump on a sched to a and then just let your restic backup pick it up asynchronously?

Holy shot thanks for droppin this spell, that's awesome

That’s wild and cool - don’t have that architecture now but… next time

Love the detail, thanks!!

As far as I know (unless smarter people know), you need a “long ass backup script” to make your own fun on a set schedule. Autorestic and borgmatic are smooth but don’t seem to have the granularity to deal with it. (Unless smarter people know how to make them do, which I may be fishing for lol)

That’s ok for a database that’s running?

Do you use a ZFS backup manager?
