Describes the zrep script that uses zfs send and receive over network to keep a read-only copy of snapshots up-to-date.

minus-squareperestroika@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoThanks, that looks like something I might have to try. :) Myself, over the network, I still don’t do filesystem level incremental backups, sticking to either directories or virtual machine snapshots (both of which have their shortcomings).
