      Hello,

      is it possible to configure the backup schedule? At the moment my server at home will try to backup my apps at 3am in a cifs-folder on my NAS, but normally at 3am my NAS is offline. From 10pm till 6am my NAS is off, because I don't use / need it at this time.

      Best regards,
      Axel

        @roru2k20 There's no way through the GUI yet, but it'd be great if it was an option, almost like setting a cronjob for it. I suppose a workaround may be to set a cronjob to run the backup script but not certain if that'll work.

          @roru2k20 Currently, this is not configurable (not even in code, unfortunately). Can look into it for the next release.

            For now, you can edit the cron pattern at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/blob/master/src/cron.js#L182 to 00 00 7,10,12 * * * or something like that (the hours are in your timezone). The file on Cloudron is /home/yellowtent/box/src/cron.js and then systemctl restart box.

            You have to do this after every Cloudron update though since it gets overwritten.

              Good morning,

              that sounds acceptable for me.

              Have a nice day!
