I have a PVE node running daily backups of all VMs and LXCs to a datastore called store1 on a PBS node on the same local network.
Now I want to add an offsite copy.
Is it possible to set up PBS so that datastore store1 gets automatically synced to an external USB hard drive to it whenever I plug it in?
I read that PBS 4 is supposed to make it easier, but I don't understand how to set it up in the first place. As far as I can understand, sync jobs is what I should do, but in order to create one, I'm supposed to create a remote first, but they're on the same box, I don't understand why I should set up a remote, perhaps I'm missing something, can you help?
Thanks.
