Backup any block based device, like LVM volumes, whole disks or ceph/rbd volumes. In contrast to other backup solutions, backy2 always backs up all data on the disk, including the bootloader, kernel and partition data...
As backy2 deduplicates all data before writing it, it's possible to backup a whole rack with nothing more than a 1 gbit link...
All data is being encrypted with industry standard encryption algorithms and additionally compressed. Together with deduplication backy2 uses way less backup space than a copy.
