I will thinking about that. But IF this feature will come alive, only for the new Appdata.backup plugin.

This would be amazing.  Currently my Duplicacy backup has to upload ~70Gb to my S3 bucket every time I backup my appdatabackup folder remotely.  I've been considering writing a user-script to extract all the tar backups into individual folders ahead of the Duplicacy backup to reduce the load on the network.  Having that functionality native to the plugin would be better/cleaner.

So a question, I am on unraid 6.12 and didnt update to the new one yet because I didnt get around to it, but I am having problems and want to roll back appdata.
Will the old version still work, even if it is not supported anymore?

I keep getting this error while backing up my docker. Any idea how to fix this?

[KluthR]

This is the wrong thread (post here: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/137710-plugin-appdatabackup/) - but apart from that: All errors show, that some MediaCovers shrank during backup. Some other process that uses this images during backup?

I'm getting a lot of

tar verification failed 

errors in the log after my first run (switched from old plugin just last week). Some of the containers don't have the errors, but most of them do.

 

Not sure what if anything I can do to resolve these? I am also confused about what the previous errors referred to in the due to previous errors statement is.

There is a new thread for the new plugin. Follow plugins footer link to get there.

 

However: I would need a debug log, please share and tell me its ID.

Is it only folders that can be excluded or can files be excluded as well?
