Miscellaneous backups (including backups of home directories for expired accounts) are stored in /users/backup (accessible on any system that NFS-mounts [[User-data\|/users]]).

			== /users Backup ==
			/users primary is held on ranch, whilst it's backup is held on tequila via incremental zfs snapshots

			On Tequila I made a dedicated destination dataset called backup/csc0_backups (backups is a big pool);

			zfs create backup/csc0_backups

			Then on ranch I ran a snapshot, and sent it over;

			zfs snapshot -r csc0@base

			zfs send -R csc0@base \| ssh root@tequila zfs recv -F backup/csc0_backups

			In the future we need to setup incremental sends on ranch

			zfs snapshot -r csc0@snap_$(date +%Y%m%d)

			zfs send -R -i csc0@base csc0@snap_$(date +%Y%m%d) \| ssh root@tequila zfs recv -F backup/csc0_backups
