Hi there,
I am a fan of the out the box Proxmox backup solution. Its simple yet effective! However on larger clusters with many VM's, running daily full backups obviously means huge disk space requirements.
I am a long time Proxmox user and have built several large clusters with it, but in this case I am replacing a HyperV cluster which currently uses Veeam for VM level backups.
I am not expecting Proxmox to go as fully featured as Veeam for backup services, however a simple incremental/full rotation would be great out of the box.
In this instance I was thinking of using FreeNAS on a 12 bay Dell R510 with external MD1200 arrays also attached. I was planning on presenting an NFS store over 10Gbe to the Proxmox cluster.
So...
Are there any plans to implement an incremental/full backup system into proxmox ve?
Is there a way to use a filesystem with De-duplication within Freenas/Similar that will keep the pile of full VM backups down in size?
Thanks
