Hi together,
I have a question related to TrueNas Scale and hope someone of you can help me out of my backup headache.
I am a newbie if it comes to Truenas Scale because i was using until now mainly Microsoft products or ready NAS Systems from different vendors.
Independent of the infrastructure i was always using a backup strategy
For example: daily - incremental, weekly - full, monthly- full .....
That allows me to deal also with a corrupted backup file on the backup system because than I simply could go back to the next full
Backup and restore the data from this backup. I am working already more than 20 years in this branch and having more than one full backup
rescue me already several times.
This is something I’m missing currently on my test TrueNas system because here I can use of course replication as a backup functionality but this
is not allowing me to store more than one copy of my data an protect me of losing my data because of a corrupted replication.
Right?
How you are dealing with your TrueNas file Backup? Which functionality or "APP's" you are using to back up your System and Files?
I would like to have as usual three copies of my data at the end. The first one on the productive system. The second one on me QNAP NAS as daily/weekly/monthly backup and the third one on my cloud storage but also as a backup. Maybe one more thing from my side if it comes to the cloud backup:
If I understood it correctly I cannot use cloud sync in this case because it is not a useful backup if the file on the target will be also deleted if I delete it on the source.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Chris
