Hello all,
I've got two FreeNAS boxes, both of which have more than 75 % disk space available. They are running FreeNAS-8.0-RELEASE-amd64 - and I'd like to find a different way to back up my data. Right now, I've got an external drive, which I copy and paste all the files to manually. I figure there is a much better way to do this. Without stabbing away at it and finding an option that works, I thought I'd ask the question here and start in the right direction first.
Is there a good way to have my two servers back up each other, over WAN?
Would I copy them to each other, and treat them as the same server, with one being primary and one being backup.
Would I use ZFS replication, snapshots, and how often. Any input on this would be great, I'm going to try to set this up soon.
Thanks.
Nick
