How to limit the size of a Time Machine networked backup
As a little reminder to self, here is how you do it – from macosoxhints.com via Bytex. If you don’t limit the size of the DMG you will apparently run into problems with Time Machine (TM) killing off your entire backup. I currently use a smallish USB disk for backup, but I would much rather have TM back up over the network, preferrably via SSH. Unfortunately, ExpanDrive does not support this officially. I am planning on giving it a try over ordinary sshfs in Fuse. I’ll be back with more.
