Hey guys,

I would like to setup some backups.

I have a raspberry at home and 2 VPS’s. I’m trying to setup borgmatic on my raspberry to back it up and the 2 VPS’s but I’m not sure this can be done.

Right now I’m looking to back up the raspberry and use rclone to mount one of the VPS and back it up. The issue is with the second VPS, it has MariaDB running and I can’t see how to back it up remotely (the port is not exposed publicly). I don’t find anything about tunneling in borgmatic. Am I forced to install borgmatic on the VPS to back it up? If I do this, how can I merge the back up with the other ones?

Actually should I do this or have 3 separate borg repositories?

Lastly, my raspberry uses rclone to push to S3 and I don’t want the keys to be accessible on the VPS’s, that’s why I’m trying to have borgmatic only on my raspberry.

Thanks for your help!

    Thanks, indeed, restic looks interesting!

    For now I don’t have much use for the deduplication as every servers are hosting different data.

    One drawback I can see is the memory usage. My raspberry only has 2GB I’m not sure if this is going to be an issue. Currently the data I need to back up are around 100GB.
