By default Duplicati is installed for a single user, but if there is more than one user on the computer you want to be able to back-up, you&#8217;ll want to install it as a service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t install it as a service, when Duplicati tries to read files that belong to the other users, it will get a permission denied error and won&#8217;t be able to back those files up. You don&#8217;t want to find out that your files weren&#8217;t backed up when it&#8217;s too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve provided some MacOS specific configurations in that section for setting it up as a service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RaspberryPi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Install Duplicati on a RasperryPi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To get Duplicati successfully installed on a RaspberryPi running Raspbian, you&#8217;ll likely have to also install some of the mono dependencies to avoid <a href=\"https:\/\/forum.duplicati.com\/t\/help-with-installing-on-raspberry-pi\/397\">installation errors<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Follow the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mono-project.com\/download\/stable\/#download-lin-raspbian\">Raspbian 9 installation instructions on the mono-project site<\/a>. No need to `sudo apt-get install mono-devel` &#8211; the dependencies for Duplicati will get automatically resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once that&#8217;s done you can (re)install Duplicati, hopefully without errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MacOS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For my MacOS installation I needed to install it as a service. It&#8217;s my wife&#8217;s Macbook. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meatballracing.com\/meatball-racing-3d-printed-products\/\">I also use it for Fusion360<\/a>, and I like my scroll settings different than she does. So it has two user accounts, both with files we want to back-up. Installing Duplicati as a service in this case is a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both of the plist configuration files can be installed as any user as they&#8217;ll be going in a system-wide location which will run Duplicati as a system service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Service LaunchDaemon<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">$ sudo vi \/Library\/LaunchDaemons\/com.duplicati.server.plist<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">&lt;?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?&gt;\n&lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC \"-\/\/Apple\/\/DTD PLIST 1.0\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/DTDs\/PropertyList-1.0.dtd\"&gt;\n&lt;plist version=\"1.0\"&gt;\n&lt;dict&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;Label&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;com.duplicati.server&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;ProgramArguments&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;array&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;\/Applications\/Duplicati.app\/Contents\/MacOS\/duplicati-server&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--webservice-port=8200&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--log-file=\/Library\/Logs\/duplicati_server.log&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--log-level=Information&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--verbose=true&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;\/array&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;RunAtLoad&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;true\/&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;KeepAlive&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;true\/&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;StandardOutPath&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;\/Library\/Logs\/duplicati_out.log&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;StandardErrorPath&gt;&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;\/Library\/Logs\/duplicati_err.log&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;Nice&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;integer&gt;20&lt;\/integer&gt;\n&lt;\/dict&gt;\n&lt;\/plist&gt;<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TrayIcon LaunchAgent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">$ sudo vi \/Library\/LaunchAgents\/com.duplicati.app.launchagent.plist<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">&lt;?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?&gt;\n&lt;!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC \"-\/\/Apple\/\/DTD PLIST 1.0\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/DTDs\/PropertyList-1.0.dtd\"&gt;\n&lt;plist version=\"1.0\"&gt;&lt;dict&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;Label&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;com.duplicati.app.launchagent&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;ProgramArguments&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;array&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;\/usr\/bin\/open&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;\/Applications\/Duplicati.app&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--args&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--hosturl=\"http:\/\/localhost:8200\"&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;string&gt;--no-hosted-server&lt;\/string&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;\/array&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;key&gt;RunAtLoad&lt;\/key&gt;\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;true\/&gt;\n&lt;\/dict&gt;\n&lt;\/plist&gt;<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MacOS Configuration Confirmation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once those two files are in place, the next time you reboot and log in, any and all users should have a Duplicati icon in the system tray. You can then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/get-your-files-organized-have-a-backup-plan\/\">configure a backup job<\/a> to read all users&#8217; files without issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful Duplicati Options (all platforms)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two settings to reduce Duplicati&#8217;s resource usage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>use-background-io-priority<\/li><li>thread-priority<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On my brand-new 2019 XPS13 developer system Duplicati was using 280% CPU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, three of the 8 available cores were dedicated to Duplicati, plus disk I\/O. I recommend setting <code>use-background-io-priority<\/code> to true and <code>thread-priority<\/code> to something below &#8220;normal&#8221; to adjust the CPU usage to an acceptable level. You can find these under &#8220;Advanced options&#8221; on the last page of the Add\/Edit Configuration page of a backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"969\" data-attachment-id=\"3731\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/duplicati-setup-tips-for-linux-raspberrypi-macos\/duplicati-cpu-io-settings\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/files\/2020\/04\/Duplicati-CPU-IO-Settings.png\" data-orig-size=\"766,969\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"Duplicati-CPU-IO-Settings\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/files\/2020\/04\/Duplicati-CPU-IO-Settings.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/files\/2020\/04\/Duplicati-CPU-IO-Settings.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/files\/2020\/04\/Duplicati-CPU-IO-Settings.png 766w, https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/files\/2020\/04\/Duplicati-CPU-IO-Settings-237x300.png 237w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As always, test your configuration.

It will take a <em>while<\/em> if you have a lot of data. For a 1TB backup from my RaspberryPi, it took a full week to complete because it is s-l-o-w. Once a full backup is made, the incremental updates shouldn&#8217;t take as long, but they may still take longer than a day to complete.<\/p>\n<div class='kindleWidget kindleLight' ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foell.org\/justin\/wp-content\/plugins\/send-to-kindle\/media\/white-15.png\" \/><span>Send to Kindle<\/span><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Single-user vs service Before you install Duplicati, there&#8217;s one question you need to ask: Does this computer have multiple user logins (that you want to back-up), or is it primarily used by one user?
