Namespaces, Dirty-Bitmap and remote sync

Hello

I am trying to sync only the last 7 backups to another server, it "works" using namespaces but that workaround creates new issues,
that backuping to two namespaces does not recognize the dirty-bit and recreates it all the time.

It is fine for small vm but for huge vm this is pretty unacceptable :(.

Also copying and moving backups between namespaces should be implemented!!

Is there any other solution, it would a LOT nicer if you can just sync the last xx backups with the sync function.

Kind Regards

it actually is included in PBS 2.4.2-1, which is already available in all PBS repositories :)
 
Awesome thanks, is this the transfer last option in advance?

Is there an option to send an email when a sync job finishes?

yes and yes (Datastore -> Options on the GUI - it's per type of job though, not per job).
