Hello,
I'm hoping someone who has deployed a PBS, and has good data on their prior backups via PVE, can provide some input.
The current size of my dump directory is 4.6T of compressed backups. The size of the VMs on the LVM-THIN mount is ~13TB (actually used). My dump directory contains 1 full backup for each VM I have deployed.
With PBS I would be using dedupe and intend on doing daily incremental backups with a week retention. The data change rate is minimal so daily backups shouldn't produce a large amount of changed blocks.
Considering the above information, how much space do I need when initially deploying PBS?
