@Obsolesce Nope, Unitrends.
Figures. The only backup software I've seen do CBT perfectly is SCDPM and I think the Veeam free windows client.
We have Veeam failing quite often.
The free one-off windows one, whatever it's called?
The agent based one, customers did physical installs years before we were involved.

$reasonswhich are beyond my control. -

got our ticket count under 10 today,
and I only have one open ticket out of the remainder that I'm waiting to hear back from somebody.
And we hit a slow patch today . -
Cooking for the kids, running Ubuntu updates.

Know the feeling. Had some CentOS servers that were worse. Can't say Server 2012+ have ever taken more than a minute for me... Typically under 15 seconds. (VMs)

I've never had a linux system take more than a few seconds to at least show progress on the updates. Windows however, I've had sit for hours with "Please wait installing updates" and never changing.

It is at least showing progress now. For 25 minutes, it didn't even do that. At 40 minutes now and it is at least "moving".

It just came up!

I'm thinking about a way to placate a few of my users who are paranoid about loosing working files from their local systems and am considering setting up rsync with ssh keys to grab files from specific locations on the user workstations. . .
But where to sync the data too and lastly I can't possibly account for every scenario that the user will do (save into. . .)
-
I feel extremely tired today
-
I suppose if I target the desktop/documents folder recursively I could handle the bulk of the issues.
Still doesn't address the need of where do I store all of the sync'd data. . .

Backblaze plus a little user training?
