How would or do you backup your home server? I don’t have enough physical storage (for now) at home to store some backups, so I want to upload it to the cloud. Of course I want the backup to be encrypted, but I don’t want to enter the password every time by server does a backup. I am currently using borg on my PC and do it manually. How do I create a encrypted backup without entering the key manually? Do I hardcode it somewhere? Don’t really like that. I am also fine with trying other backup software.
I had constant problems with duplicati and switched to kopia with backblaze and it has been problem free, so I would tread very carefully with it. The database would work for a while and then get into a state that required a reset and would not have permitted a successful backup to be restored.
Yes i know, i had them too, and serious ones. It needs to always have an eye on it. I choose it because the large amount of cloud storage supported natively, and not have to configure and deal with rclone or even + restic to do a backup in home products like Onedrive. For me that’s more noise and issues.
