How to backup vps to various file hosts?

I have a vps containing 1TB of files, I want to backup it and then upload it to many free file hosts. The problem is I can't make an archive file of my vps cause you'll need double amount of space which I don't have. Is there a free method to backup without using extra space?

  • Perhaps rclone

  • It depends on what your target file hosts support.

  • Rclone is the best option.

    rclone (or rsync, its underlying technology).

    Or borgbackup.

    Or duplicati.

    Or duplicity.

    Or rsnapshot.

    But I'm an rclone man myself.

    You can mount many cloud storage services with Fuse but none will give you 1tb (storage/bandwidth) for free.

    I think your cheapest option is to rent a storage VPS by the hour then mount its filysystem from original VPS using rclone sshfs support, do your backups and uploads then kill the new VPS.

    raindog.. rclone... the recurring repetition of the letter r
    is refreshing

    maybe you want to backup to filehosts like 1fichier?

    But is rclone support every panels? i.e. webmin/virtualmin?
