Incremental backup on promox

[Jame]

Hi all,

I didn't find any solution for Incremental backup on Promox. I found a tool it was Bacula. Someone has used bacula kvm virtulization to incremental backup.?

Any help would be appreciated.

You can always store your backups decompressed on a ZFS volume and do all your incremental, compression and Copy-on-Write deduplication stuff. I do it this way. The incremental backup patches provides are not working (= very slow) in a big environment with a lot of VMs and data.

Jip, when ZFS was integrated into PVE, i immediately changed my backup stuff to ZFS. You might want to have a look at https://github.com/oetiker/znapzend (Sure, there are tons of tools, wrappers and handcrafted scripts, but this one is fire and forget https://morph027.gitlab.io/post/zfs-snapshotting-using-znapzend/ )
