Subject: [PVE-User] pve-zsync or backups to zfs over ssh?
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2023 14:05:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ef7046dd-9949-f04b-fb5d-c836165f493d@bryanfields.net> (raw)

I have a proxmox cluster with each server using it's own zfs storage pool and 
would like to implement backups to a zfs pool accessed via ssh.

I've been working with pve-zsync, but it has some flaws as it's not cluster 
aware.  What I mean is it's only able to sync local VMs on the server it's 
configured on.  If the VM is migrated it is unaware and will fail.  I'd expect 
the cron job to be migrated as well.  the snapshots that exist are also 
destroyed during a migration of the VM between hosts as well, so if it's 
migrated back, the job will fail as well.

I'd like to do a backup server, but all I have now is SSH with zfs as the 
backup location.

Is there a better way to do this that is cluster aware?
