For now I’m leaning towards using pve-zsync for backing up my bigger but non-critical machines, and then using syncoid to achieve incremental pull backups off-site.

In effect, the first mirror pair in our disk set will have (at least) two partitions: a regular filesystem… Continue reading Replacing ZFS system drives in Proxmox
