Help Understand Replication for an SMB

[Sparda88]

Hello,

I am relatively new tto Proxmox so bare with me as I am still learning the right terms butt so far Proxmox is amazing.
I just managed to get 3 PCs in a cluster. I have an extra drive in each of them and have them as a zfs drive so I can move containers between them without an issue. I have a turkey lxc that has a mountpoint for Samba server with a mountpoint. When I try to replicate it I get the error that mountpoints cannot be replicated. I did go to the container and chose skip replication but that does not copy the data in the mountpoint but just the lxc.
Is there a way to replicate the mountpoint data between the clusters in the interface? The most I can think of is a cronjob or something to just copy the data.



Any suggestions on what the best way to backup/replicate the data to the other drive? Any advice is appreciated.

Okay I did some research and the list is wild interms of response. I saw rsync but that is not good for something that is running. Would it be better if I put the files in ta container directly instead of mapping the mount point or use zfs send/receive but I cannot figure out how to use that.
I am really not sure how to make a fileshare and not have to do too much manual input. Is there a way? I also see Open Media Vault as a VM but people very torn on that.
The drives I got for free are 8 TBs so even 1 TB for a container is overkill for now. I am at 130 GB. I just have some pictures that are dear to me and I really do not want to lose.
