Send Archive
Why
You need to send the archive file to the destination where it is to be restored.
If the destination is directly accessible from your current location, and you
don't need reconciliation, then consider using other tools such as
Robocopy or rsync.
You can use other tools you have available to upload the archive file to cloud storage.
When
Send the archive file once it is created.
How
To send the archive file you use the Send-Peter function. It is your choice
on whether you use the Send-Peter function to send the archive file and ".key"
file or another program or command line.
Send-Peter
-ArchiveFile <String>
-TargetPath <String>
-SecretFile <String>
-TargetProfile <String>
-AccountId <String>
-AccountKey <String>
-LogPath <String>
The ```ArchiveFile`` is the name of the 7ZIP archive file you created.
The TargetPath is specified as follows:
- s3://bucketname/path/path/archivefile.7z
- b2://bucketname/path/path/archivefile.7z
The "s3" prefix is to upload to AWS S3. The "b2" prefix is to upload to Backblaze.
If you are uploading to AWS you can specify the AWS profile name
in parameter TargetProfile. In this situtation the profile
needs to exist in the AWS credentials on your local device and user profile.
If you are uploading to Backblaze you specify the AccountId and the
AccountKey. For better security you can save the Account Key as an
environment variable named PETERDOCS_ACCOUNTKEY
You override the SecretFile file name location on the local device,
if it is not the default name and location.
What
The function will upload the archive file and key file (if applicable) to cloud storage.
