#!/usr/bin/env bash # # Daily backup of ~/Server (NVMe) to the ZFS pool on this same machine. # Purpose: survive the NVMe/LUKS volume dying. Not an offsite backup. # # Runs as ROOT via server-backup.service. That is deliberate: this box runs Docker, # so most container data under ~/Server is root-owned. The old script used `sudo rsync`, # which worked but could never be automated without a sudoers rule. A systemd system # unit is already root, so ownership is preserved natively and no sudoers entry is # needed at runtime. (Note this differs from the VPS, which is rootless podman and # needs rsync --fake-super to carry subuid ownership; nothing like that applies here.) # # History is ZFS's job: Media/Server_Backup has zfs-auto-snapshot keeping 14 dailies, # so this writes ONE directory and never makes dated copies. Snapshots are block-level, # so a 1.6 GB database that changes a few pages costs a few pages. # # See RESTORE.md for how to bring this back. set -uo pipefail SOURCE="/home/gib/Server/" DEST="/home/gib/Public/Server_Backup/Containers/server.gib/current" STATE_DIR="/home/gib/Server/_backup_state" LOG_DIR="/home/gib/Server/logs" LOG="$LOG_DIR/backup.log" LOCK="/run/server-backup.lock" REMOTE_DATASET="Media/Server_Backup" SNAPSHOT_MAX_AGE_HOURS=48 mkdir -p "$LOG_DIR" log() { printf '%s %s\n' "$(date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')" "$*" | tee -a "$LOG"; } die() { log "FATAL: $*"; exit 1; } exec 9>"$LOCK" || die "cannot open lock $LOCK" flock -n 9 || die "another backup is already running" EXCLUSIONS=( # --- build noise (inherited from the original script) ------------------- "node_modules" ".git" "*.log" "*.tmp" ".cache" "cache" "tmp" "temp" ".npm" ".yarn" "dist" "build" "target" ".venv" "venv" "__pycache__" "*.pyc" ".DS_Store" "Thumbs.db" "vendor" "*.mp4" "*.mkv" # --- the big one: Gitea CI runner Docker-in-Docker storage -------------- # 203 GB across runner-1/2/3 (72 GB of containerd image layers each), and it # churns constantly as CI builds run.
