[OmniOS-discuss] Backup script (one local, multiple remote snapshots)

[Dale Ghent]

We developed Zetaback for this. As for how you exactly want your snapshots to be in number and how long they should stay around, you might be able to configure a backup policy which covers that.

https://github.com/omniti-labs/zetaback

The documentation is perdoc within the zetaback script.
