    I'm sure I wrote this elsewhere, but be great if alls that aren't currently being backed up can have things done with them in the meantime, restarts, repairs, updates, etc.

      @marcusquinn - yes, a huge vote for that. I think this was referenced before in a feature request too if I recall correctly. It is very annoying when I need to quickly restart an app and my system backup happens to be running preventing me from doing a quick task. I usually just get around this by backing up in the middle of the night but sometimes I want to also do a system backup in the afternoon but on my system it takes nearly 1.5 hours for a backup to complete so then in that time I’m forbidden from restarting an app for example which is quite annoying. Would love to see multi tasking for that. 🙂

        Sorry I'm sure this has been discussed but has the plan been dropped to have a unified dashboard across several instances?

            Sure, I just wondered as it wasn't listed in the list at the top of this thread.

                Add Hetzner Storage Box backend (based on rsync)

                This seems to be very interesting feature...

                Waiting also for native multiple backup locations ☺️

                Is there much chance of Cloudron 9.0 being available in September, when we can expect Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS to be completed?

                The storage box and multiple location backup options will be nice.

                    allow for subvolume-level app-install (maybe via hook-scripts) on btrfs or zfs, so one can make subvolume-level incremental backus, which would be a massive timesaver and SOTA solution.

                      Sorry for a small confusion: we have made a 8.1 available as unstable now to fix many of the regressions in 8.0. We could not make it a patch release of 8.0 because it also introduces some features like OIDC groups, Gandi PAT support, Hetzner Object Storage etc. Nothing major but we are still forced by semver to make a "feature" release and thus 8.1

                              I have added a mechanism to skip running du . The code now looks for a /home/yellowtent/platformdata/diskusage/exclude file. This file can contain one filesystem (as listed in the first column of df output) per line. du for these filesystems is skipped.

                                  Implemented in https://git.cloudron.io/platform/box/-/commit/872705d58d3146ec6b6a5ac5aed6adbe9e245ab9 . The Cloudron name is used as the OIDC provider name as well. The apps will be adjusted one by one to make use of this new environment variable CLOUDRON_OIDC_PROVIDER_NAME

                                    We will be working on the following for 8.2:

                                    • (9.0) Backup integrity - store size and checksum of backups. Also provide a way to "verify" backup integrity in the remote.
                                    • (9.0) Show backup/restore progress
                                    • (9.0) Multiple Backup Destinations
                                    • (9.0) Granular Backup schedule
                                    • Fix issue with removal of stale/failed/partial backups
                                    • Add sqlite3 addon
                                    • Remove the global lock for backups.
                                    • App archival?
                                    • VM mode for apps?
                                    • Branding of OIDC button
                                    • Add more notification methods
                                    • Don't run du for small disks (see)
                                    • Mail attachment search

                                    We will re-evaluate this in some future release. For the moment, this is out of scope. It's too complicated to implement a VM like system that allow readwrite containers and further allow users to define backup directories, services, exposed ports etc. We will stick to pre-packaged apps for the moment.

                                      @girish how’s it going with multiple backup destinations? I’m really looking forward to this.

                                          @firmansi internally, email is already backed up separately. You will find mail.tar.gz in your backups, for example. Or are you thinking of something else?
