For those of us who prefer not to ship to the cloud, have you used Kopia Repository Server and is it any good? Does it run on Windows?
The documentation refers to files and directories. Does the software let you take a consistent, point-in-time snapshot of a whole drive (or even multiple volumes), e.g. using something like VSS? Or if you want that have you got to use other software (like Macrium Reflect) to produce a file?
Where does the client cache your encryption password/key? (or do you have to enter it each session)
- CrendKing 3y agoI wrote this part of the documentation: https://kopia.io/docs/advanced/actions/#windows-shadow-copy https://kopia.io/docs/advanced/actions/#windows-shadow-copy If you have problem using it, please let me know.
- rkagerer 3y agoNeat, thanks!

I use local Ceph S3 for backups, and then use kopia to mirror that to one a local RAID just in case my Ceph dies ;-). It stores the password, base64-encoded, to ~/.config/kopia/repository.config.kopia-password. I suppose it would be nice, at least for workstations, if it supported keyrings—and it might, I haven't looked into it.
