In this schema, every volunteer will set up a cron script to run rsync on the backups folder. The location of the backup folder information and credential information will be provided by the admins of the site.
Pros
- rsync would already know what's the latest backup to download based on the changes
- rsync would automatically deal with removal of old backup files that were previously removed from the server
Cons
- There are security considerations to take care of, since volunteers will have access to an account at Floss-Pa's server, which would probably be a dedicated backup account
SCP latest backup
In this schema, every volunteer will set up a cron script to list latest backup file and copy it from Floss-Pa's server to their own server.
