Go and have a look at the zsnapd Debian package in sid.

We use this at my employer for back up! Way improved and works a charm!

Nice, but the fork seens also dead :(

  • no issue tracking
  • does not work with python3.8.5 (i try to create AUR-packages for Archlinux: zsnapd and python-magcode-core)
  • no feedback for really easy PullRequest over 10 days

so maybe i have to search for another zfs tool which support pull of snapshots

Hi!

Just reworking packaging in Debian. Running quite well with python 3.7. Will try 3.9 on Sid shortly to fix any issues.....

Hi!

Have just re python-packaged zsnapd. python3 setup.py build & install should now work.

Renamed the scripts directory to zsnap. There are scripts in the top level directory of zsnapd. My install method is to copy the top level directory into /usr/share as /usr/share/zsnapd, and symlink the scripts to /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. This allows you to copy the working directory to your home directory, symlink that to /usr/share and work and debug the scripts using the python debugger from the command line. This works as Python follows the exec symlinks to find the top level Python execution directory, and puts that one on the Python modules path. Unconventional, but makes it a lot easier when developing.

Git repo is up at: https://github.com/grantma/zsnapd

Let me know how you go.

Best Regards,

Matt Grant

@grantma your project looks great in the docs and it is packaged in Ubuntu, but I hesitate to introduce it, as I see no updates, no issue tracker and no activity from you on GitHub. Will this project continue to be maintained?

This pull request points to an older branch, the master is ahead of that and only 9 commits behind this project: https://github.com/grantma/zsnapd/tree/master

I'm closing this issue as I unfortunately don't have the time anymore to maintain ZFS Snapshot Manager. I would like to point you towards the awesome tool zrepl which has nearly all of ZFS Snapshot Manager's features and much more.

In any case, thanks for being a part of this community.
