OMV as Backup Server with different size drives

  • Hey Guys


    Been using OMV on my micro server for years now. It has 4 x 3tb drives running in raid 5. I have been manually backing up all my data.


    I would like to put an old computer to work as a backup server. I have some odd size drives lying around that I would like to use.


    2 x 2TB
    3 x 1TB
    1 x 500GB


    Couple of questions. What is the best way to set the server up for the mixed hard drive sizes I have?
    Also what is the best way to have the backup server backup my current server?


    Cheers

  • Couple of questions. What is the best way to set the server up for the mixed hard drive sizes I have?


    Probably as a Pool via the Unionfilesystem Plugin.

    Usually rsync, there is a Guide for that in the Guide Section.


    Greetings

    Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
