Hello everyone,
my TrueNAS system is not running all of the time, it's rather booted on-demand. Therefore I can't use the periodic snapshot feature, since I can't make sure that the NAS is running at the defined snapshot time . I still want to have some kind of regular snapshot process.
Is there a built-in way in TrueNAS to create a snapshot everytime the system boots up?
If no, I'd imagine I can add a post-init script that calls something like zfs snapshot -r pool_name@snapshot_name but I still want the snapshots to show up in the Snapshot section in the UI. Is any ZFS snapshot shown in that section or do I have to follow a certain naming convention?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Elektropepi
