btrbk is a backup tool for Btrfs disks.


Warning Warning: This page is a work in progress and is not completed. Important informations might be missing or wrong.

Install

btrbk is not yet included in Debian Jessie. Make sure you configure stretch source before running the command bellow.

# apt install btrbk

Setup Backup Server

Destination Disk

Create a Btrfs volume and mount it on /backup.

User

# adduser --system --shell /bin/sh --home /backup/ --group --no-create-home btrbk
Adding system user `btrbk' (UID 122) ...
Adding new group `btrbk' (GID 124) ...
Adding new user `btrbk' (UID 122) with group `btrbk' ...
Not creating home directory `/backup/'.
# mkdir /backup/.ssh
# touch /backup/.ssh/authorized_keys

This user will need to run btrfs tools as root. Let’s add this to the /etc/sudoers file

btrbk   ALL=NOPASSWD:/bin/btrfs

If you limited access to certain users through SSH, add btrbk to the AllowUsers list and restart SSH

Setup Client

SSH Key

Create an SSH key dedicated to your backups

# mkdir /etc/btrbk/ssh
# chmod 700  /etc/btrbk/ssh
# ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N "" -f /etc/btrbk/ssh/id_ed25519
...
# cat /etc/btrbk/ssh/id_ed25519
AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIFWJQzmdbnWfJqfa/YqXHQXh5bhkRir76mkkdVSln+eo root@client.example.org

Then, on the backup server, add the following line to /backup/.ssh/authorized_keys.

command="/usr/share/btrbk/scripts/ssh_filter_btrbk.sh --target --info -p /backup --sudo",restrict,from="client.example.org" ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAIDwxT6AaiAjahdUBeitkRDK6FXeZhI10rVN8BIeVriXG root@client.example.org
