Kudos regarding a great restore/migration experience

[jadudm]

Description

I just migrated my entire Cloudron instance, and there were no problems.

You can, and should, close this ticket after basking in your kudos.

Steps to reproduce

1. I read the documentation for backing up and restoring Cloudron.
2. I followed the directions.
3. I migrated my instance from one machine to another.

Specifically, I'm locally hosting, and was very impressed with how seamless the process was. My backups were via SSHFS mount, so when I brought up my new machine, and uploaded the backup config, it happily mounted the backup and began the restore process.

I used the /etc/hosts trick to point to the new machine on the internal network, and when everything came up, I told my router to point to the new host as opposed to the old.

Absolutely wonderful. Thank you.

The Absence Of Troubleshooting Already Performed

Just wanted to say how grateful I am for the work that goes into this. Thank you.

System Details

I moved from a Dell 7040MFF (bare metal) to a UGREEN NAS 2800.

1. I put Proxmox on the NAS bare metal
2. Built a VM on the NAS NVMe boot drive (this became my new Cloudron host)
3. I put a pair of 8TB drives in ZFS RAID1 (7TB usable), and mounted a 6TB virtual disk living on that ZFS filesystem to the VM as /home

This should put all of my Cloudron app data on the ZFS array. I backup over SSH to another machine with a similarly sized ZFS mirror.
