Enhancement: Add options to configure Windows Shadow Copy Service
2024-04-28 22:48:22 +00:00
Restic always used 120 seconds timeout and unconditionally created VSS snapshots
2020-11-06 03:18:30 +00:00
for all volume mount points on disk. Now this behavior can be fine-tuned by
2024-04-28 22:18:46 +00:00
new options, like exclude specific volumes and mount points or completely
2020-11-06 03:18:30 +00:00
disable auto snapshotting of volume mount points.
For example:
2024-04-28 22:18:46 +00:00
restic backup --use-fs-snapshot -o vss.timeout=5m -o vss.exclude-all-mount-points=true
2020-11-06 03:18:30 +00:00
changes timeout to five minutes and disable snapshotting of mount points on all volumes, and
2024-04-28 22:18:46 +00:00
restic backup --use-fs-snapshot -o vss.exclude-volumes="d:\;c:\mnt\;\\?\Volume{e2e0315d-9066-4f97-8343-eb5659b35762}"
2020-11-06 03:18:30 +00:00
2024-04-28 22:18:46 +00:00
excludes drive `d:`, mount point `c:\mnt` and specific volume from VSS snapshotting.
2020-11-06 03:18:30 +00:00
2021-03-23 04:41:45 +00:00
restic backup --use-fs-snapshot -o vss.provider={b5946137-7b9f-4925-af80-51abd60b20d5}
2024-04-28 22:18:46 +00:00
2021-03-23 04:41:45 +00:00
uses 'Microsoft Software Shadow Copy provider 1.0' instead of the default provider.
