Clarify that Nextcloud is not included in Backup #191

Open Bettelmage opened 4 years ago

Bettelmage commented 4 years ago

While thinking about how to make sure my Nextcloud data is safe and backuped, I checked the wiki and the backup script.

IMHO it should be made more clear in the wiki, that the Nextcloud volume (and most important the data folder) is not included in the Backup. I guess not everyone will have a look into the script.

Hi, the maintainer of this project (Graham Garner) has not been heard from since January. We all hope he is OK and will resurface sometime. In the meantime, the active fork is probably where you should re-post this issue. The stated intention of the current maintainers is to fold that fork back into this project if Graham comes back.

I don't use Nextcloud but the script at the active fork still excludes it. Graham Garner handled InfluxDB (which I do use) separately and my guess is that he intended to write a backup script specifically for Nextcloud. If you've figured out a way of backing-up Nextcloud then maybe create a pull request to add your script to the directory.
