Duplicity Reviews

25 Outstanding Backup Utilities for Linux Systems in 2020
Duplicity is a free open source, secure and bandwidth-efficient backup tool based on rsync. It creates encrypted backups of directories in tar-format archives and backs them on the local or remote machine over SSH. When launched for the first time, it performs a full backup, and in subsequent backups in the future, it only records parts of files that have changed.

  • Are small ceph clusters viable?
    Overbuilt and OTT? Sure... But this works fantastically for my use case. I have current backups of everything except my media library because of the size of it; my VM's are all backed up to my Synology nightly using Backy2, my application data gets dumped to that same Synology NAS nightly as well, and all of that also gets synced to Glacier deep storage once a week using Duplicity. I'm going to be adding a new ZFS... Source: 11 months ago

  • Krusader giving an Errno 13 during a large copy.
    Everything I'd read previously seemed to suggest Krusader or Midnight Commander was the way to go but it looks like Rsync should do the trick (I'm new to Linux / Unraid). I'll plan on trying the steps outlined by Space Invader here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkp_BUgJGqE I assume http://luckybackup.sourceforge.net/ is a good UI alternative if I wanted to do more in depth file manipulation / copies without...
