Offsite backup

Want to send your current backups in your server to another location / server in cloud?

This topic is still open and not completely resolved, so it needs more love.

But here are some of the latests options and discussions:

There is an experimental script to set as server_script_post option in server side:

But it is still not recommended and needs to be fixed, also it could require much more time to complete each backup of each client, so if performance and time to backup is something important it will never work for you.

There are some examples on syncing all the storage folder to move all your backups to another server:

See these comments:

rsync -AHXazivh --no-whole-file <src> <dest> > <log>

to copy backups to another system. All through stunnel also.

Some parameters are optionals. IIRC, you need "aAHX", "z" depends on your bandwidth, "ivh" is for the log.

If you have (very) big backups, it will most likely fail, or take far too much time though.
