You can, indeed, achieve similar level of magic of a general purpose savings with ZFS or BTRFS. I'm using BTRFS snapshots to keep intermediate copies of a working partition. It's nearly 400GB of data, and I keep ~10 copies of it (a week worth of daily plus 3 for month of weekend copies). All on ~800GB of RAID6 space. > I'm wondering if I could apply your automations to a few background > projects I'm working on > Would also be interesting to see how cleanly the existing setup could > be mirrored knowing the details of the automation... rsync would > happily copy the symlinks, and once created, a Time Machine mirror > *should* be able to "stay in sync" with the original time machine by > pulling from the cygwin main sources in the same manner. I can imagine so. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Friday, November 11, 2016 17:31:48 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
