I want to examine if the next state of affairs will work.

  • Backing as much as Time Capsule by way of Time Machine
  • Amassed over 2 TB
  • I wish to construct redundancy to cowl for ageing Time Capsule
  • Holding current backup on Time Capsule
    • This shall be decommissioned when it fails
  • Cloning the backup .backupbundle picture file to new community drive and utilizing that backup in parallel with the prevailing Time Machine backup
  • XXX.backupbundle maintained at Time Capsule and new community drive
  1. Join new community drive (finished)
  2. Copy the prevailing XXX.backupbundle file from Time Capsule to the brand new community drive (ending now)
  3. Including new community drive to time machine (to do)
  4. Deciding on “use each” to keep up two an identical backups at two places (to do)

With respect to the excellent factors 3 and 4:

  1. is there the rest I ought to do to make sure that Time Machine will recognise the XXX.backupbundle file that was copied to a different location.
  2. some other factors price contemplating earlier than I begin interacting with the Time Machine settings?
