5·22 days agoWhat’s your hypervisor manager? Or are you just bare metal?
For VMWare and Proxmox both, I would recommend the community edition of Veeam. It can handle up to 10 VMs for free.
If you’ve got the funds as a small-to-large business, Veeam’s first paid tier, on a yearly basis, is a solid option to backup even more.
Caveat emptor if you buy a license (or not): Veeam runs on Windows only. I have used, like, a single internal network Windows VM dedicated just to Veeam before. It has an easy to pick up UX after a little research, and the UI is clean.

If you have a smart TV, you’re already at a disadvantage.
One solution to consider might be a black hole DNS on your local network, like Pi-Hole, that can target this device and prevent all Google requests.
Another, unfortunately, might be to get a dumb TV and use an HTPC as your streaming solution for the content you already watch.
And another might be to look into custom TV OS options out in the wild.
