Training Details

While OpenNebula offers multiple ways to back up your virtual machines, some methods require specialized software, and others are only available in the Enterprise Edition.

Rsync-based backups provide the simplest way to start protecting your virtual environment using native tools available on nearly every Linux distribution. No third-party software is needed, and backups are fully managed from the OpenNebula Frontend.

Agenda

Join our live training session for a step-by-step walkthrough on configuring, backing up, and restoring virtual machines using Rsync in OpenNebula. We’ll cover:

• Setup and prerequisites: What’s required to start backing up your environment with Rsync.
