New backup server just dropped!
This server is awfully slow, and the mdraid setup is awfully slow, and I doubt that this will be a good experience, but we now have a backup server again?

  • Tried Disko and nixos-anywhere
  • Tried using mdraid
  • Found that md is ancient and bad
  • Found that disko is 100% extra steps, and a lot more complicated and noisy than just formatting your disks yourself
  • Found that systemd-boot doesn't support mdraid
  • Found that we probably don't need to mirror the boot partition :)
  • Found that old hardware is slow
  • Found that old hardware can have poor support for iPXE with UEFI, and might do weird BIOS stuff on you when you least expect it
  • Reaffirmed that zfs is love

Current disk layout:

  • mdraid for boot/root disk
    • 4TB WD Red with 500MiB ESP with systemd-boot, Remaining mdraid - Old?
    • 4TB WD Red with 500MiB Unused partition, Remaining mdraid - Old?
  • zfs pool "tank" for the actual backup data
    • 8TB Toshiba MG08 - New
    • 8TB Exos 7E10 - New

TODO:

  • Document the death of Toriel on the wiki
  • Document Bakke on the wiki
    • ... describing the poco loco disk layout
  • Start backing stuff up
    • Restic? Borg? Rsync?
    • Make backup retention policy and zfs snapshot system
    • Document backup procedures

Plz squash when merging.

Bakke has existed for quite a while, and it should be present in the config so we can update it along with the other machines. Remaining todos should become issues, or added as todos in the code
