Duplicacy Web - backup .zfs directory

Support

#1

Hi,

I struggle to backup the folder .zfs - which is a hidden virtual directory from ZFS, where the snapshots resides.

Initially I linked the latest snapshot to “zfslatestsnapshot”, but recognized that Duplicacy does not follow symlinks.

So on one side it would be interesting to backup only the latest snapshot:

/cachepool/domains/Home Assistant/.zfs/snapshot# ls -l

drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Dec 7 22:22 2023-12-07-201439/
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Dec 8 22:22 2023-12-08-201439/
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Dec 9 22:22 2023-12-09-201439/

and on the other side it seems Duplicacy by default ignores the .zfs folder, even when I explicitly add it:

+/cachepool/domains/Home Assistant/.zfs/*

Thanks

Running: 3.2.3

Duplicacy follows first level symlinks. So you can symlink the latest snapshot to the root of the repository and duplicacy will pick it up.
