Cool, thanks. I see the gpg key in remote.log in the git-annex branch, so it's saved, which is the thing I care about most. I'm now sure I could recover my data in a DR scenario. However, I seem to be missing something with enableremote and how this is all supposed to work.
My main repo is ~/local/pics and here's the result of git annex info glacier:
11:45:24 [24623]; git annex info glacier
remote: glacier
description: glacier backup [glacier]
uuid: e34c5f10-2a97-4477-a248-b96e050557dc
trust: semitrusted
cost: 1050.0
type: glacier
creds: stored locally
glacier vault: ...snip...
encryption: encrypted (encryption key stored in git repository)
chunking: none
remote annex keys: 27519
remote annex size: 47.95 gigabytes
I used git annex assistant to create a manual mode remote on my usb key. This created a annex-pics directory on the usb key with a bare repo.
11:50:50 [24626]; pwd
/media/craig/KINGSTON/annex-pics
11:50:51 [24627]; ls
annex branches config description HEAD hooks info objects refs
I then did a git clone from the bare repo into a tmp dir:
11:52:48 [24670]; git clone /media/craig/KINGSTON/annex-pics annex-pics
Cloning into 'annex-pics'...
done.
But when I enable the glacier remote, which I'd have to do in a DR scenario, I get an error:
11:53:29 [24672]; git annex enableremote glacier
(merging origin/git-annex into git-annex...)
(recording state in git...)
git-annex: Unknown special remote name.
Known special remotes: gitannexpics
It knows about the remote, but hasn't assigned a name to it:
11:53:36 [24673]; git annex info glacier
git-annex: glacier is not a directory or an annexed file or a remote or a uuid
11:53:49 [24674]; git annex info

Doing a git annex info on the uuid does something, but I'm not clear what it does:
11:53:56 [24675]; git annex info e34c5f10-2a97-4477-a248-b96e050557dc
remote annex keys: 27519
remote annex size: 47.95 gigabytes
An enable remote on the uuid doesn't work either:
11:57:33 [24678]; git annex enableremote e34c5f10-2a97-4477-a248-b96e050557dc
git-annex: Unknown special remote name.
Known special remotes: gitannexpics
I feel like I'm missing a step. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Craig
