How xAgent Backup and Disaster Recovery Work: Incremental Snapshots and recovery.yml
· 7 min read
A self-hosted backup needs to answer more than whether bytes reached remote storage. It needs to show that the data can be restored, how much downtime restoration requires, and whether a failed cutover can return to the previous state.
xAgent 0.0.8.beta turns those questions into a verifiable procedure: create encrypted incremental snapshots while the service is running, download and verify restore data online, switch directories after shutdown, then confirm or roll back.
