@d19dotca said in What is your backup config and why?:
@p44 - Do you find the 2 PM (presumably that's a "peak" time for your server traffic) impacts performance at all?
This is a very good question. Performances could be affected but our customers in that time they are in lunch time, so we prefer to keep an updated copy of backup after "morning work". Backup all data it takes around 30minutes.
@girish Oh that's a good idea! I don't think I knew I could create a mailbox and have an app use that mailbox, or at least I didn't really consider it before. I think that's a good workaround. Thanks!
@nebulon Thanks! You have very comprehensive explained why not in an easy to understand way . Relevant discussion here for those who will never visit the "App Packaging and Development" section of the forum!

This is both for retry when, for example the backup done prior to the update, fails temporarily, as well as if apps and platform gets updates, they lock each other so retries in not so busy times are an effective workaround.
Right.. It seems there are many candidates zabbix, netdata, some SNMP thing I forget etc. I prefer simply making sure Cloudron "works" with these existing software. It's why we added a way to open up the firewall as well. Happy to make any more fixes required to make these things work more easily.
@girish Ah okay, that makes sense on the tgz part. Unfortunately I haven't had much success at all in any quicker times (in fact it's often closer to double the time than tgz, taking between 1-2 hours) when using rsync in my tests for OVH Object Storage. But maybe I just haven't found that 'sweet spot' yet. I'll keep testing. Thanks Girish.
