Hello,

I have a second linux server with a ZFS array for backup. This PC has IPMI (supermicro motherboard X10SL7) support using which i can turn it off or shut it down. I am leveraging syncoid to transfer ZFS snapshots to the backup PC.

I am wondering what is the best strategy amongst the following:

  • Turn backup server ON from primary server
  • Push ZFS snapshots from primary server
  • Send command to shutdown PC from primary server

or

  • Turn backup server ON from primary server
  • Pull snapshots from primary server
  • Send command to shutdown PC from backup server
