Your backup repositories need to be initialized before they can be used. Norg
|
||
|
|
has a command to do this for you once you.
|
||
|
|
To initialize your repositories one by one, you can run the following command:
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
norg -c myconfig.toml init -e repokey-blake2
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
This will initialize a Borg repository using the `repokey-blake2` encryption algorithm, making it ready for use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Restic does not use the same encryption algorithm option, so the above command may fail. However, running the below command again, without the `-e repokey-blake2` option
|
||
|
|
will initialize a Restic repository correctly, leaving the borg repository untouched.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**TODO**: We plan to resolve the requirement of running this command twice in the future.
