I have a TrueNAS file/media/game server at home. I would like to build another system to have a remote backup of my system. I was thinking I could keep the other system at a friend's house, and they could use the other system as their own NAS/media server. Then our two systems could backup to each other.
Where I'm lost is how do I configure this behavior? Would I be setting up a cloud sync task? How do I setup the remote networking?
Also the backup files of the other system need to be excluded from this system's backup, otherwise the backup sizes would exponentially increase.
Can I allocate a certain amount of space for each system/backup so one system doesn't fill all the storage of both systems?
Also this part is not a big concern: Can the backups be encrypted for the other system? and can/should the backup be compressed to save space?
Could anyone suggest some resources for configuring two TrueNAS systems to communicate with each other as I have described?
