Normally, there are no heading levels assigned to certain characters as the structure is
|
||
|
|
determined from the succession of headings. However, this convention is used in Python’s
|
||
|
|
Style Guide for documenting which you may follow:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# with overline, for parts
|
||
|
|
* for chapters
|
||
|
|
= for sections
|
||
|
|
- for subsections
|
||
|
|
^ for subsubsections
|
||
|
|
" for paragraphs

Listing all snapshots
|
||
|
|
=====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now, you can list all the snapshots stored in the repository:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ restic -r /tmp/backup snapshots
|
||
|
|
enter password for repository:
|
||
|
|
ID Date Host Tags Directory
|
||
|
|

|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can filter the listing by directory path:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ restic -r /tmp/backup snapshots --path="/srv"
|
||
|
|
enter password for repository:
|
||
|
|
ID Date Host Tags Directory
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
590c8fc8 2015-05-08 21:47:38 kazik /srv
|
||
|
|
9f0bc19e 2015-05-08 21:46:11 luigi /srv
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or filter by host:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ restic -r /tmp/backup snapshots --host luigi
|
||
|
|
enter password for repository:
|
||
|
|
ID Date Host Tags Directory
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
bdbd3439 2015-05-08 21:45:17 luigi /home/art
|
||
|
|
9f0bc19e 2015-05-08 21:46:11 luigi /srv
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Combining filters is also possible.

Checking a repo's integrity and consistency
|
||
|
|
===========================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Imagine your repository is saved on a server that has a faulty hard
|
||
|
|
drive, or even worse, attackers get privileged access and modify your
|
||
|
|
backup with the intention to make you restore malicious data:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo echo "boom" >> backup/index/d795ffa99a8ab8f8e42cec1f814df4e48b8f49129360fb57613df93739faee97
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to detect these things, it is a good idea to regularly use the
|
||
|
|
``check`` command to test whether everything is alright, your precious
|
||
|
|
backup data is consistent and the integrity is unharmed:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ restic -r /tmp/backup check
|
||
|
|
Load indexes
|
||
|
|
ciphertext verification failed
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Trying to restore a snapshot which has been modified as shown above will
|
||
|
|
yield the same error:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ restic -r /tmp/backup restore 79766175 --target /tmp/restore-work
|
||
|
|
Load indexes
|
||
|
|
ciphertext verification failed
