- microtonal 1mo agoI don't like these staged backup for these reasons. Every step (e.g. NAS backup to Hetzner) can cause an error, so adding steps increases the probability of error. Personally, I just back up directly from my machines to a local storage server and to a cloud object storage with object lock (so that e.g. ransomware encryption or attempts to remove the data do not work).
- TranquilMarmot 29d agoWhat cloud object storage do you use? I went with Hetzner because I was optimizing for price.
- TranquilMarmot 29d agoRight now, I just restore everything to a new folder and make sure that I can stand up Immich, Forgejo, etc. again and point it there and have it working. DB backups for Immich are handled automatically, but for Forgejo I had to write a custom script that does a dump of the DB every night. I'm not sure I could do a partial Immich/Forgejo restore since it would be missing so many files.
