Cloudron Forum

I found an solution to this issue by switching to rsync for backups (with hetzner storage box).
Since each backup is incremental, it doesn't matter how many backups are stored.
The backup size pretty much matches the app size.

Circling back after some testing.
Rsync with backblaze didn't seem to perform very well. Tho i'm not sure i had it configured correctly. It looked like it tried to sync everything each time.
Rsync set up with hetzner storage box works like a charm. Each sync after the first one is fast.

Curious for Immich whether yall recommend using rsync or tgz.
I'm currently using tgz and wondering whether to switch to rsync.
The docs say that rsync will be faster because of concurrency and only uploading new data. But might be slower because of the large number of files.
Does it work better?

Hey,
I had a storage template set up and noticed today it hasn't been running since may. And other of my settings were changed.
I found that the UI is locked and set to default? settings.
I go to the file and just find {}

Can we please enable changing the settings in the UI again?

You guys rock! Thank you.

@nebulon the slider does not move.
Min and max are the same

Hey,

I migrated from one server to a new one.

On one of my apps (immich), i can't resize the memory. It is stuck on 4GB.. I have 6GB on the system.

Is the swap being smaller part of the problem?

Thanks for your help!

Hey,

My picture library is well over 100GB. I'd like to make sure the app is backup up once every week and kept for 1 month.
I've set that as the backup frequency in the Schedule and Retention section.

Now if i look at the last month i'd hope to see 4 or 5 backups. THERE ARE 18! I'm guessing from each app update and server update.

Is there a way to have automated backups and keep the number low? The biggest issue is I'm spending way more on s3 storage than i'd like.

Thanks.

Thank you @girish!

I'm using the immich app for my pictures and it is getting a lot of updates. Each update creates a backup with my 100GB+ library.

This is is making my s3 storage more expensive than i want.
I'd like to limit app backups to 3 total for the apps i choose.

I want to test it! I might be missing something obvious, but how do I test it out on my cloudron instance?

@nebulon looking forward to the update! Will the next Cloudron release include those extensions?
I'll try to wait patiently...

I'd like to use pocketbase on cloudron too. Great replacement for firestore. Been self hosting for a few months without any issues.

Maybe off topic: I have cloudron and immich as the only app installed on https://contabo.com/en/storage-vps/. The 400GB is what made me go for it.
I can't vouch yet for reliability or performance, but seems as expected for $5
Backups sent to Backblaze for cheap price too.
