Mounting of Archives via FUSE
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
The :term:`FUSE` implementation for the pxar archive allows you to mount a
|
||||
file archive as a read-only filesystem to a mountpoint on your host.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# proxmox-backup-client mount host/backup-client/2020-01-29T11:29:22Z root.pxar /mnt
|
||||
# ls /mnt
|
||||
bin dev home lib32 libx32 media opt root sbin sys usr
|
||||
boot etc lib lib64 lost+found mnt proc run srv tmp var
|
||||
|
||||
This allows you to access the full content of the archive in a seamless manner.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: As the FUSE connection needs to fetch and decrypt chunks from the
|
||||
backup servers datastore, this can cause some additional network and CPU
|
||||
load on your host, depending on the operations you perform on the mounted
|
||||
filesystem.
|
||||
|
||||
To unmount the filesystem simply use the ``umount`` command on the mountpoint:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
# umount /mnt
|
||||

||||

`FUSE`_
|
||||
|
||||
Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) defines an interface which allows to
|
||||
implement a filesystem in userspace as opposed to implementing it
|
||||
in the kernel. The fuse kernel driver handles filesystem requests and
|
||||
sends them to an userspace application for reply.
