well, enterprise will let you, but not community.

rolling your own would involve writing a script to zfs send the blocks.

hey are you doing a poc?

lk

poc?

proof of concept

leading to an enterprise deployment

ah, ok. no.

so you can pretty easily write a script which does this.. I asked because this would be "voiding" the warranty of enterprise setups

You can easily make a script that does a zfs send localsnap | ssh remotehost zfs recv /path/tosnap

Then the incremental looks like..

zfs send –i localsnap1 localsnap2 | ssh remote host zfs recv /path/tosnap

You could put it in a cron and have it run on a regular basis..

that's what i'm thinking.

Hi Linda,

Do we need to get 2 enterprise license if we intend to use auto-sync. Or can we just purchase 1, i.e. the commercial edition auto-syncs to the community edition.

James

Two. Community Edition cannot be the target of an Auto-Sync, it is not supported. Both sides need to be Enterprise Edition if you wish to use Auto-Sync plugin to replicate data.
