Ensure Rclone Backup From PBS

[johndoe86x]

Hi, all,

First off, I want to comment the team for how well PBS works! Thank you!

I am using PBS to make backups from one of our nodes to tank/backups. I am then using rclone-crypt to send the data to Backblaze B2. However, I've noticed that there are some size discrepancies when looking at the overall usage and the individual container/VM usage. I'm under the impression that rclone isn't reading the ZFS data itself, but rather reading the files/folders at particular ZFS mountpoints. Is there a way to ensure that all the data located under tank/backups is being uploaded? I obviously don't want to get into a disaster recovery scenario where my cloud backups are incomplete.

Cheers!

whats your rclone command. Do you check the log?
i think the difference appear because of different fs parameter like block size, compression....

Thanks for your response! Here is my rclone command: rclone -P --transfers=24 --checkers=24 sync /tank/backups/ b2_crypt:proxmox-node1 --log-file=/tmp/rclone_log.log --log-level INFO

I just added the flags for logs so I don't have any valid data to check right now.
