zrepl is a one-stop ZFS backup and replication tool written in Go. It handles periodic snapshotting, incremental replication over TCP/TLS/SSH, pruning, and bookmark/hold management between ZFS systems.
Use cases
- replicate zfs datasets to a backup server
- schedule periodic zfs snapshots with pruning
- send zfs snapshots incrementally over ssh or tls
- back up zfs pools to untrusted receivers with encrypted raw send
- set up pull-based zfs replication from production to backups
When to choose
- you use ZFS and want an integrated snapshot, replication, and pruning daemon
- you need resumable, incremental replication with automatic retries
- you want encrypted raw sends to untrusted backup targets
When to avoid
- your filesystems are not ZFS
- you only need simple one-off snapshot copies without automation
- you need a GUI-driven backup solution
