You're welcome! As for /mnt, you're definitely in the vicinity of the fuzzy line between OS-level decisions and local site policy-level decisions. I mostly try to keep generated data in a separate tree, e.g., rpool/home or perhaps rpool/data, these days. It makes it a bit easier to use an include list rather than exclude list approach to backups. I then mostly just assume that I can rebuild the actual environment from the automation or packages I used in the first place. I'm curious to hear how Restic goes! It seems interesting, but is sufficiently complex that I had trouble convincing myself I'd be able to easily verify that it had backed everything up without an extensive ongoing restore testing programme.
