Job Types
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A *job* is the unit of activity tracked by the zrepl daemon and configured in the [configuration file]({{< relref "install/_index.md#configuration-files" >}}).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Every job has a unique `name`, a `type` and type-dependent fields which are documented on this page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Check out the [tutorial]({{< relref "tutorial/_index.md" >}}) and {{< sampleconflink >}} for examples on how job types are actually used.

Currently, zrepl does not replicate filesystem properties.

|
|
Whe receiving a filesystem, it is never mounted (`-u` flag) and `mountpoint=none` is set.

This is temporary and being worked on {{< zrepl-issue 24 >}}.

- Snapshotting Task (every ``interval``, |patient|)

- A snapshot of filesystems matched by ``datasets`` is taken every ``interval`` with prefix ``snapshot_prefix``.

- Wait for connections from pull job using ``serve``.

A source job is the counterpart to a :ref:`job-pull`.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the prune policy determines the maximum replication lag:
|
|
|
|
|
a pull job may stop replication due to link failure, misconfiguration or administrative action.
|
|
|
|
|
The source prune policy will eventually destroy the last common snapshot between source and pull job, requiring full replication.

|

Make sure you read the [prune policy documentation]({{< relref "configuration/prune.md" >}}).
