Moving backups to another remote?
-
I tried to reply in the old topic, but was suggested to open new one.
TL;DR
How to move existing backups related to a backup job to new remote?I have couple of XO backup jobs - daily deltas, weekly deltas, monthly full - all unfortunately landing in the same NFS remote on TrueNAS.
Now I would like to do a little clean up for further backing these backups to the cloud and be able, for example, more precisely define storage classes on S3. Simply keeping daily backups in daily share/remote, weekly in weekly, etc.
I know I can edit jobs and set remotes. But can I easily move existing backups to respective remotes? Or if it's not possible do I need to keep original remote until all deltas will be deleted based on their retention?
I would like to avoid manually looking into xo-vm-backups folder to figure out what and where to manually move

Hi,
I'm not sure to get it. Do you want to move them to S3 "directly"? Because S3 storage format for our backup isn't the same as for NFS.

@olivierlambert I want to move them on NFS in order to be able to backup later from NFS to S3 in more granular way
Generally, we are talking about XO - NFS. S3 would be out of XO.
