Hello,
Is it possible to backup a client using BareOS to a WORM (that is a
Write Once Read Many) device? I
tried and it seems to work but I would like to know if it's
supported or it just happened to work.
Yes, it is supported.
I tried to lookup the documentation and found the File and FIFO
Device Types which could fit this
use case but it depends on the implementation (I couldn't find info
on how backups are archived
using File Device Types and if I understood correctly I would have
to write my own handler to read
the backups from the FIFO Device Type).
You do not need to do anything witht the FIFO device type.
My main concern is that BareOS needs to update some file (be it a
backup archive or internal
index/metadata I may not be aware of) which in this device can't be
deleted nor modified (including
having data appended).
Data once written is not altered anymore, so theere is no problem
with WORM devices.
Thank you in advance,
