Question about openhabian Auto Backup

Setup, Configuration and Use Installation
20

Found the post…

But now I see that it’s from 3 years ago… :thinking:

I’m sorry again if I made a mess- I read through a LOT of docs yesterday and might got confused with everything. So I’ll try to explain my understandings so far, any remarks or corrections will be highly appreciated:

  1. An installation on 32GB card will require a 64GB external card to backup to.
  2. The new auto-backup feature will mirror the internal card to the external card twice a year- It’s a long process (tried it now- about an hour) but it’s negligible as mentioned above.
  3. In between Amanda will take incremental backups of the system.
  4. In addition I can use the backup script of ‘openhab-cli’ to backup just the openhab config files- this should backup also everything set using the UI (Things, Items, Links, Rules).

Did I finally get things right?

Thanks again in advance for the time and help! :hugs:
