#restic — Public Fediverse posts

Friends and foes, I have updated my blog post about backing up your data: https://taffer.ca/posts/2024/backups/

(Please back up your data regularly!)

Huh, it turns out if you clean up the leftover lock from that aborted backup five months ago, the retention/cleanup actually works. 🤦

@farorne thx for the tip! I recently (yesterday) started backing up my files with #restic so even if I mess it up it should be recoverable haha. I saw that if conflicts happen syncthing creates conflict files, is there anything particular I should look out for?

It took me a while to notice the misconfiguration of my remote NFS repository for restic

@sandcat @argv_minus_one looks like Restic is #llm infected too :-(

Restic + systemd user services = set-and-forget backups. The trick: a oneshot service for the backup + a timer, with ExecStartPre to verify the repo is reachable and ExecStartPost for pruning. No cron, no shell scripts floating around. Works great with MinIO/S3/Backblaze B2. #Homelab #Backups #Restic #Systemd #SelfHosted

#borg or #restic as #backup on #nixos ? And why?

@ruben it saved my ass numerous times!

And NixOS integrates it really nicely, so you don't have to fiddle with all the parameters & secrets, but just call restic-<setup_name>.

Nice current overview of #backup systems! Personally I like #restic for automation / scripting purposes.

Se avete un HomeLab questo potrebbe salvarvi dall'inferno, evitandovi lunghe e creative bestemmie verso Dei apocrifi o pagani...

Well, the only “good” news about slop in #restic is that it appears to be 3 commits that made no actual logic changes, only some typo corrections in docs/strings/comments. So far, I don't have high hopes that it will stop at that.

When doing offsite #backups with #restic do all my machines backup to the same repo or does it make sense to have multiple ? maybe one repo per source ? #linux #backup

@restic Great !

Although I got hit by the restic snapshots --latest 1 backwards incompatibility change. See github.com/restic/restic/issue…

🎉 Oh joy, another web UI for backups! Because, clearly, typing a single command line was just too much for our delicate #developer hands. 🤦‍♂️ #Restic must be thrilled to have a "backrest," because who doesn't love taking a nap in the middle of a backup process? 😴✨
