With a little setup (no more than described here), rclone just... does this out of the box.
Specifically I have an S3 remote configured to use the Deep Archive tier. On top of that I have an encryption remote (pointing to the S3 remote). Then I just rclone my pool to this remote, and all my crap is shipped off to Ireland.
Like in the link, I expect never to need it; restore is so expensive that it's a "house burns down" insurance only.
- mrich 4y agoThanks, sounds interesting, will take a look. Do they store files 1:1 or do they create tar archives? Single files are quite ineffective on Deep Glacier.
- weird-eye-issue 4y agoI use rsync.net as a secondary backup and it's especially handy because you can easily configure it to keep N snapshots for every X days/weeks/months/quarters/years
- mrich 4y agoI found two problems with rclone, would be interested to hear if I misunderstood anything or if you have a workaround: - It will not create archives by default, so potentially upload a lot of files (just like rsync). There are a few workarounds in the documentation to mitigate the cost. - It cannot do restore of Deep Archive data
- mrich 4y agoEdit: Can do restore, but it's a manual step.
