I'm looking for a backup tool that supports duplicity style encrypted backups and rsync. The status of the backups for several different directories should be shown summarizes in a web UI or simple report that can be mailed / posted online.
So basically a web UI / config file where I just say take directory X, back it up encrypted to Y, or rsync directory Y to site Z. Then I get a report that shows the state of each backup.
The tools I've found do only support either one of the methods and are mostly thought for personal backup with a X UI and not web / config ui.
To make it a little better to understand, here is what I have currently set up:
- system and important directories are synced with duplicity to a local backup drive
- rsync is then used to sync the local backup to a remote site
I'm using this two step process because I've only a limited upload bandwidth (100kbyte) and about 300MB to 2GB changed data that must be transferred. Thanks to an SSD the first step is done in a under a minute and I can be sure to have a relatively consistent state of the system and also several virtual machines I'm running.
The "problem" I'm having is controlling the state of the backups. Currently I'm getting a a few mails with the output of the cron job, but since I'm backing up several directories with different settings at different intervals there are a lot of information. I'd some type of report that contains the state of the backup and important data like amount of changed data, if any error occurred, if a file was locked or unreadable, etc. on a simple overview page.
Is there a tool that provides this, or, does anyone have a solution how to achieve the above backup scenario in an easier way.
