Then from there it is being shipped to Backblaze's [b2](https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage) for off-site storage. In principle, the setup I would like to retain, where the encryption credentials are only on machines creating backups and everything else only sees already encrypted files. In practice, restic itself seems to have a lot of troubles with the source machines being laptops and being constantly opened and closed, caused the running backup process to go through hibernation cycles. This locks/damages the central backup repo quite frequently and I need to run `restic rebuild-index` quite often to keep things working. diff --git a/content/posts/2020/12/setup.md b/content/posts/2020/12/setup.md index a95be47..65e2a80 100644 --- a/content/posts/2020/12/setup.md +++ b/content/posts/2020/12/setup.md @@ -67,7 +67,7 @@ Sync is also not a replacement for backup, as file deletions and corruption can - [restic](https://restic.net/) Here is where I am not that happy with the overall setup, and not that much has changed from 2019. -Currently I use `restic` to package and encrypt the backup and then ship it off of individual machines to my central NAS storage.

I made some progress on [bakare](https://github.com/cyplo/bakare), a small backup engine in Rust, but it's not ready for production use yet.
