I am test driving duplicacy right now and having trouble restoring from a backup. Here’s what I have done:
- Successfully backed up 6GB of data from a Raspberry Pi to a B2 bucket - backup is named
test_data
- Downloaded a snapshot of that bucket to my Mac and unzipped.
- Made a new folder on my Mac and run
duplicacy init test_data /path/to/download
to init that folder and link it to the unzipped data from B2. - In that folder run
duplicacy restore -r 1
but instead of success gotChunk {64-bit hash} can't be found
Any hints? My guess is that the key used for encrypting / decrypting chunk files is incorrect on the new machine (for data backed up from the Pi) but how do I pass this value across? How are others restoring backups from B2 in the scenario where the entirety of the original machine is destroyed (let’s say stolen or fire damaged as opposed to just a HDD failure).
Any help gratefully received!
Many thanks
