    This is currently not possible and not really planned either so far. Maybe you can use the mountpoint backup location on your system as storing backups on the main disk isn't a good idea in the long run anyways https://docs.cloudron.io/backups/#filesystem-mountpoint

    Thank you! I'm working through the platform updates now. I didn't realize it was so out of date, as I had automatic updates turned on. Discovered that the same issue causing my backups to fail was also preventing the platform updates from completing. Manually stopping the Snipe-IT app allowed the updates to complete successfully, so I'm assuming this will be resolved, but will follow up here if not. Really appreciate the assistance.

    It was happening across multiple servers at the same time yesterday. Looks to be resolved now.

    The issue is now resolved. The problem was with the GitLab database, where we found 160 GB of logs. The database dump was failing because there wasn’t enough free disk space. We have purged the database, and backups are now successful. Thank you for your support.

    Update: cloudron-support --troubleshoot returns: [WARN] netplan configuration is empty. this might be OK depending on your networking setup [FAIL] DNS is not resolving Further, /etc/netplan/ is empty. How do I generate the correct .yaml file to include there? Final Update: I was able to crate a netplan .yaml file by following these instructions.

    I would say lets close this here. I do not see any failed cleanup jobs even multiple jobs try todo the same.

    There is currently no generic way to do this from Cloudron side. Depending on your backup storage you are using, you probably can download directly from there.

    I just had the issue while attempting to migrate to a new Cloudron restore, at the step of restoring a full backup and this despite following exactly the steps in Cloudron guide for restoring backups. I quickly solved it through: Reviewing unbound service status shows everything looked ok I had a doubt about the private key password being good, as the backup configuration didn't clarify that in the UI. I just put my private key password again, and attempted the restore button, this time it works. So it's good to mention maybe in the guide that the private key password should be double checked even if using a preexisting backup configuration generated from the previous Cloudron instance.

    You should be able to download the whole task logs from the logviewer, which should give you more context which app was currently backed up.

    @daixiwen ah ok. I would ignore the errors. It's normal for upstream services to go down once in a while... I just checked https://status.backblaze.com/ and unfortunately no history of uptime here. But it says "Backblaze performs regular maintenance every Thursday from 11:30 am to 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time with the aim to consistently improve our systems and services. "

    Just today I got a notification about an erroneous backup of the server where I have Nextcloud installed (150GB size) and I backup once a week.. I should add that the previous backups were successful. The provider is Backblaze B2.
