Comment on Need suggestions for setting up backups between a local and remote server
biomechLulu@lemmy.ml 3 weeks agoThanks but I’m limited to openmediavault on my Rpi locally. I wanted to try something a little more powerful like truenas to get more experience different linux-based systems. But given that I currently don’t have any major plans for the remote server other than storing backups I may just put a distro that I can install borg on like others have suggested.

No worries, also just to let you know. I have a TrueNAS and a unraid server.
The TrueNAS server has a Unraid samba share mounted. Within TrueNAS you setup a pull task where it copies files from your remote system to keep the directory in sync. Any changes on my unraid samba share are backed up to my TrueNAS share on a predetermined schedule.
You might want to look into the pull task on your TrueNAS which will be a lot easier then trying to push files from your OpenMediavault.
