After the latest bersion of Arq destroyed my backups, I moved to the AWS CLI and S3 sync. I have buckets in 2 regions at negligible cost. It's not automatic unless you script something, but it works.

You just configure Glacier lifecycle rules via the console.

What did Arq do? I have also had some weird glitches with Arq in the past (but no data loss that I’m aware of).
Importing 5 backups into 6 made the backups unusable. I might still be able to get them with 5, but need to work out how to do it.
Ouch. That’s rough.
