1) separate data from applications
2) use a real filesystem like zfs or btrfs
3) cronjob snapshot, replicate onsite, replicate offsite
4) monitor size of volumes and snapshots, delete them as your policy
5) periodic zfs and btrfs scrub
End of fucking story. No need for all that tricky shit y’all are doing.
