I have also been trying UpenMediaVault and it's an overkill for me.
I have a Dell R320 fitted with 8 1T SAS drives, the hardware raid is
turned off as OpenMediaVault uses sorfware RAID.
If I turn the hardware raid on can I use Debian as the opperating

Thank you for any help,
David.

I've used a similar (tho hand-cooked) script running `rsync`.

More accurately, rsnapshot (which is basically a frontend to rsync)
tells rsync to do that; IIRC by passing --link-dest pointing at the
previous backup target directory.

Hi
I was a user of OpenMediaVault for several years. I even donated money

But very provocatively OpenMediaVault is bloatware, way too big. The
