World Backup Day

Backups... fine
When's the World "test you can restore" day?
-
It's World Backup Day again. Good opportunity to check if your backup mechanisms work as intended.
Anyone know how to turn the US off and on again to verify we can roll back? I wanna say we might have some corrupted sectors...

what is a good solution that does incremental backups of docker volumes? o btrfs subvolumes... i have them mapped
-
Yep, hence my comment...
You should see the fear on people's faces when I suggest they restore a backup - esp. on Production.
My advice (to combat their fear) is to take an offline backup that has some kind of checksum and then immediately restore it.
That gets them past the initial fear and then we progress onto other backup strategies... if needed.

Just have my phone set to syncthimg netween a second drive on my pc and the home folder on the pc rsync to the same drive. I need an external provider to back that up.
Sorry to be that guy but replicating / syncing isn't really backing up.
You need snap shots or versioning.

Ehh... I'll do it tomorrow.
That's what everyone says, but you really should just wait until next year comes around.

I never knew we backed up this world. Can we revert to a snapshot from the nineties please?
This is what happens when you don't scum save.

I think the August 2001 backup is a good restore point.

Eh I don't even need to think about this anymore. I have a cron job that backs up every March 31st.

Eh, I'm not sure if the world can be picked backup, it's been knocked down pretty hard. I'm always down for trying though.
