Moved an existing borgbackup repo to a new physical disk and OS. Is this considered ok? #9963
|
I have a Raspberry Pi to which I have connected an HDD which has been storing a borgbackup repository. In the past I had to erase the OS on the Pi since I wanted to start from scratch with a new version. Additionally, it has happened I have changed HDD but I had moved the borgbackup repository with Is this considered OK when I continue to backup in this "new machine" with a "new HDD" where I have just changed the OS and HDD or there is something that I haven't thought it through? It is that I have just lost one of my backup repository due to a HDD failure so I now wanted to check if I have been doing something wrong with my second (still alive) backup repo. |

Using rsync to move a repository is ok. You just must not COPY a repo with rsync and continue to update both copies with borg independently. |
