I utilize podman on my server for running my software.
Recently, I saw that my server ran out of space on its 8TB raid 10 array. Which immediately raised questions for me.
After using “duc” to analyze my drive. I found that podman had used 4 TB of storage space in “/var/tmp”.
Anyone else have this happen to them?
The process of backing up is a matter of preference. Several solutions exist from vendors to freeware.
Lots of people use ‘cp’ or ‘rsync’. I use those prior to borg backups of major repos or archive folders.
Install process is easy. Aside from hypervisors and stuff like that, I just install my OS on bare metal partition, and create a sidecar OS to do maintainance from chroot
