As the title says, i recently printed a nice case for my RPi3 and HDD that intend to run as an offsite backup machine.
Looking for recommendations on what backup service to run. I want to backup my Nextcloud and a "changes only" backup/cloning solution would be optimal but i have yet to find one.
It’s basic, but rsync is a reliable changes-only solution. You can do push or pull on a cronjob.
Does this setup have some sort of versioning or snapshots?
Try rsnapshot, it's rsync with hard links. Though, is better to use snapshots on filesystem (be it zfs, btrfs, or another one with such a feature... Might be CoW is required, never thought much about it ..)
