In reply to JasonBW. Hello, Well this is pretty basic, as long as you have it in different volumes and folders, yes.

Hi Jorge, could the above be applied to copying entire XFS repositories that CloudConnect write to?

i.e. Create a Backup Copy of the Linux server that has the XFS mount and set the destination to a similar Linux server at a remote site with the same size XFS mount?

In reply to Pedro.

Hello Pedro,
There is not much information on the Internet about it. I will like to think that it will tend to consume some less RAM than ReFS, as it does use 4K blocks, but I will keep it to 1TB/1GB RAM just in case, and monitor it with Grafana or similars.

Let me know if you find some information, I couldn’t and I was looking for days on this.

Hi Jorge,

Cool stuff here, but one thing I cannot find in Veeam site is the sizing recommended for using Linux XFS with Reflink, can you help sort this out? as per Refs its recommended 1GB RAM per 1TB, But nothing is mentioned for XFS with Reflink.

Regards

Pedro
