The keyfile which associates this machine with your tarsnap

Create the keyfile with <command>tarsnap-keygen</command>.
Note that each individual archive (specified below) may also have its
own individual keyfile specified. Tarsnap does not allow multiple
concurrent backups with the same cache directory and key (starting a
new backup will cause another one to fail). If you have multiple
archives specified, you should either spread out your backups to be
far apart, or specify a separate key for each archive. By default
every archive defaults to using
<literal>"/root/tarsnap.key"</literal>.
It's recommended for backups that you generate a key for every archive
using <literal>tarsnap-keygen(1)</literal>, and then generate a
write-only tarsnap key using <literal>tarsnap-keymgmt(1)</literal>,
and keep your master key(s) for a particular machine off-site.
The keyfile name should be given as a string and not a path, to

The cache allows tarsnap to identify previously stored data

will refuse to run until you manually rebuild the cache with
<command>tarsnap --fsck</command>.
Note that each individual archive (specified below) has its own cache
directory specified under <literal>cachedir</literal>; this is because
tarsnap locks the cache during backups, meaning multiple services
archives cannot be backed up concurrently or overlap with a shared
cache.
Set to <literal>null</literal> to disable caching.

Note: every archive must have an individual master key. You
must generate multiple keys with
