    I'm running NC on a homeserver and it's working great. However, I just noticed that my backups are 30GB in size so it seems it's saving a copy of all my data too. I'm not worried about data loss as I would have multiple copies of it on several PC's and I do take periodic cold-storage backups for redundancy.

    • Is it possible to have Cloudron back up the "config" stuff like the users/storage limits/etc. without saving any of the user uploaded data?

    I read the documentation about data retention and I have a question regarding the proper syntax that I should use.

    'trashbin_retention_obligation' => 'auto',
    

    I'd like to use the option below and have it delete them after 7 days.

    auto, D
    

    What would be the proper syntax to use? Is it....

    auto, 7
    

    or

    auto, D7
    

    Thanks!

      @humptydumpty said in Auto Backups - Data Retention and Syntax Questions:

      auto, 7

      I think this is the one. This would translate to delete all files in the trash bin that are older than 7 days automatically, delete other files anytime if space needed.

      (I think D is just notation for doc purposes)
