low harness Mar 19, 2020, 9:14 AM

#

I've been backing my NAS up to the cloud over the last 48 hours. The counter is at nearly 960 000 files...

#

A majority of them have names like "hRoc5W5nXSOkniOZHVc.DI5x4lGY-PhgebAd_0tTfg"

#

Oh my god. Forget whatever point I was about to make... guess what I pressed to copy that filename out of the terminal... and guess what that key combination usually does... and guess what that did to my 48 hours-and-counting backup process.

#

Excuse me. I'm going to go cry for a minute.

strange vapor Mar 19, 2020, 9:26 AM

#

@low harness I started a restore of a few terabytes of data from old nas to new on Friday, and then went down to my parents. Logged into the NAS from 200km on Saturday. After copying a few terrabytes of data, over a TP-Link powerline network thingy, it was now down to ~12kb/s

#

Did some pings, and getting 80% loss.

#

Nothing to do but wait till I got back up here.

#

Turns out, you can burn out a TP-Link with high bandwidth!

clear ferry Mar 19, 2020, 9:27 AM

#

powerline 🤢

#

@low harness but just resume with rsync!1!!!11one

low harness Mar 19, 2020, 9:27 AM

#

Yeah. That's what I did. It's jut anoying that I'll have to start the verification all over.

#

So.. anyway.

#

What I was going to say is that maybe 0.1 % of that near milion files actually makes sense as a file, and maybe it's time for a new concept.

clear ferry Mar 19, 2020, 9:34 AM

#

you have an interesting NAS with that many individual files atleast

#

one would almost imagine you running a local git 🤣

low harness Mar 19, 2020, 9:34 AM

#

It's various backups of stuff since many years and many computers

clear ferry Mar 19, 2020, 9:34 AM

#

Yeah I do that too, but I usually zip stuff down

low harness Mar 19, 2020, 9:34 AM

#

Probably lot of git repos in there.

#

Thing with git is the local copy is exactly the same as the server copy, so you get everything. That's a lot of stuff.

#

But things like the .git directory shouldn't need to be a directory. A file should do.

#

singular

#

The file could even emulate a file system so you could mount it if you really want to, to edit some part of it. But there's no reason for the host file system to know about every tiny little piece.

#

The majority of the time my backup has taken isn't transfering the files, it's traversing the tree. And that's just stupid.

#

And yes, I should use a block based backup service, but I don't.

strange vapor Mar 19, 2020, 10:03 AM

#

@clear ferry The Powerline was handy to get an ethernet connection out to a workbench where I was assembling the new NAS.

gonna have to ditch myq found a pretty big issue when using with the HA

#

if the stupid hub loses connection to the api for whatever reason after you have opened the door and you have an automation to close the door after x amount of time. HA gets the state stuck that it's open when it's actually closed and opens the door and since the state cannot update because the hub nor HA can connect to the api after x amount of time it "retrys" to close the door so you close it manually, it opens it, you close it manually and it opens it lol

So monitoring the virus is "nifty" but I wanted to see if there were cloud computing initiatives that were trying to help. I saw https://hackaday.com/2020/03/18/join-team-hackaday-to-crunch-covid-19-through-foldinghome/ and a few posts from @forest edge and @silent niche . If I understand, this folding at home project is to help discover treatments. I also saw someone online has put this into a docker container. https://github.com/yurinnick/folding-at-home-docker

I have little to no development experience, but would it be that hard to turn that docker container into an #add-ons-archived ? I was thinking of taking a stab myself using the instructions to create an add-on...

I signed up for the Pro plan a long time ago though, and jumped to Pro+ because of the features there. Then again, I make a lot of use of RSS

#

Chatting to my own ISP, and they don't care too much as they've put in local caches belonging to Netflix, Akamai, and others. There's also a better culture of local peering in Europe which means a lot of traffic going over local exchanges.

#

However, there's a lot of large ISPs who didn't put in such caches as they might compete with their own TV offerings, and who don't peer. They're getting absolutely hammered on their transit links now.

95th percentile going through the roof.
