Backup Options

[johnlee2509]

Hi Folks,

Installed on a dedicated server is Freenas 9.3. The O/S is installed on a 256gb SSD
I then have 4 x 2gb Hard Drives installed, and they are paired in mirrored volumes.
The first mirrored pair, is volume "HomeSet" and is where all my Data are stored
The second mirrored pair, is volume "BackupSet" and is where I would like a backup of the HomeSet to be created.
I would also like this backup to be performed weekly with incremental or differential backup if possible.

Is this possible?
Clear details would help as I am a novice of 1 day with Freenas


Regards

Welcome to FreeNAS :)

I recommend reading the manual start to finish. http://doc.freenas.org/9.3/freenas.html
I also recommend looking through the forum for posts like this: https://forums.freenas.org/index.ph...ning-vdev-zpool-zil-and-l2arc-for-noobs.7775/
However, the specific part of the manual that covers what you are trying to do is here: http://doc.freenas.org/9.3/freenas_storage.html#replication-tasks
