Hi
I would like to use duplicity to provide rsync-style backup of 20GB data from 3 directories (about 50k files). I am backing up to an OpenStack Swift compatible server. I think duplicity might be exactly what I need, and I just wanted to confirm what version I should use.
The downloads page recommends 0.6.25, but the stable ppa[1] has 0.7.02-0ubuntu0ppa1080~ubuntu14.04.1.
I've been trying 0.7.02 and it seems to work OK, but wanted to check, is it stable enough for production use?
The other question I have is can duplicity make multiple backups to the same openswift container? I tried creating a directory in my openswift container and using that in the swift url when I backup (swift://container/directory), but I see the following error:
Attempt 1 failed. JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)
Alternatively, is there a way to name to backup tar.gpgs that duplicity creates so that multiple backups don't collide? I tried the --name option, but this is only for the client name.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
