So you are planning to mirror your local duplicacy backup store to backblaze personal account, if I understand correctly.ĭuplicacy store is a collection of files (chunks) with a collection of other files (snapshots referencing the chunks). However, I’m not sure if there are downsides of an essentially manual copy of duplicacy to BackBlaze that I don’t yet understand. TL DR – using local + offsite backup copies to BackBlaze, do you get the same functionality of the Duplicacy -copy option using BackBlaze persona edition to copy your entire Duplicay backup structure to BB, or will there be a drawback to this approach? For example, given that I’m not using the GUI/CLI to do the copy to Backblaze, will my files backed up there be recoverable? Or would I have to restore the entire remote storage directory structure to allow me to restore a selected group of files locally?
The main reason for using the personal edition fo Backblaze is that it is a flat cost regardless of size, and since I’m not doing any native / headless backups to Backblaze, I don’t really see a downside to this model. Most of our machines have really modest usage, but my Windows 10 server is a fileserver with ~70TB of data, portions of which I’d like to push to the cloud over time (I had about 10TB on CrashPlan, which is about the amount I’d like to backup remotely with BB as well). I used Windows as the main repository so that I could have the option of backing up my entire Duplicacy local storage drive using Backblaze Personal (unlimited backups for flat fee). My current planned solution is to use Duplicacy backup for all of our computers (~6) to a Windows 10 VM I’ve created for purposes of holding all of the Duplicacy backups on one local machine.
Hello all - Crashplan refugee here testing out Duplicacy as hopefully my new solution…
