Backblaze B2
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Restic can backup data to any Backblaze B2 bucket. You need to first setup the
following environment variables with the credentials you obtained when signed
into your B2 account:
.. code-block:: console
$ export B2_ACCOUNT_ID=<MY_ACCOUNT_ID>
$ export B2_ACCOUNT_KEY=<MY_SECRET_ACCOUNT_KEY>
You can then easily initialize a repository stored at Backblaze B2. If the
bucket does not exist yet, it will be created:
.. code-block:: console
$ restic -r b2:bucketname:path/to/repo init
enter password for new backend:
enter password again:
created restic backend eefee03bbd at b2:bucketname:path/to/repo
Please note that knowledge of your password is required to access the repository.
Losing your password means that your data is irrecoverably lost.
The number of concurrent connections to the B2 service can be set with the `-o
b2.connections=10`. By default, at most five parallel connections are
established.
