Server backups persisting?

MrQu33f commented 1 week ago

Hi there,

I've been away and found my server had shutdown. Back now and restarted it but it seems to not be stuck on version 0.218.21 I'm not brilliant with containers etc. I'm running them from Portainer as a stack as follows: Is the image updated or am I doing something wrong?

version: "3" services:

valheim: container_name: Valheim-stack image: mbround18/valheim:latest ports:

2456:2456/udp
2457:2457/udp
2458:2458/udp environment: TYPE: Vanilla PORT: 2456 NAME: WORLD: PASSWORD: * MODIFIERS: portals=casual ENABLE_CROSSPLAY: 1 TZ: *** PUBLIC: 1 AUTO_UPDATE: 0 AUTO_UPDATE_SCHEDULE: "0 1 " AUTO_BACKUP: 1 AUTO_BACKUP_SCHEDULE: "/15 " AUTO_BACKUP_REMOVE_OLD: 1 AUTO_BACKUP_DAYS_TO_LIVE: 3 AUTO_BACKUP_ON_UPDATE: 1 AUTO_BACKUP_ON_SHUTDOWN: 1 UPDATE_ON_STARTUP: 0 restart: unless-stopped volumes:
/*****/:/home/steam/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim
/*****/:/home/steam/valheim
/*****/:/home/steam/backups

I do have another issue thats arose over the last few days. My docker storage volume was full and after investigating I realised it was valheims backup folder was what was doing it. this is my stack:

version: "3" services: valheim: container_name: Valheim-stack image: mbround18/valheim:latest ports:

2456:2456/udp
2457:2457/udp
2458:2458/udp environment: TYPE: Vanilla PORT: 2456 NAME: Egg with Legs Dedicated Ashlands Server WORLD: Egg with Legs PASSWORD: **** MODIFIERS: portals=casual ENABLE_CROSSPLAY: 1 TZ: EUROPE/LONDON PUBLIC: 1 AUTO_UPDATE: 1 AUTO_UPDATE_SCHEDULE: "0 1 " AUTO_BACKUP: 1 AUTO_BACKUP_SCHEDULE: "0 1 " AUTO_BACKUP_REMOVE_OLD: 1 AUTO_BACKUP_DAYS_TO_LIVE: 3 AUTO_BACKUP_ON_UPDATE: 1 AUTO_BACKUP_ON_SHUTDOWN: 1 UPDATE_ON_STARTUP: 0 restart: always volumes:
/srv/Appdata/valheim-al/:/home/steam/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim
/srv/Appdata/valheim-al/:/home/steam/valheim
/srv/Appdata/valheim-al/backups/:/home/steam/backups

I modified it the other day to reduce the frequency but fear i've done something wrong. I just looked and saw it was taking a backup and in the backup folder the latest tar.gz file was being generated and was over 500gb??

I've made a new stack as per Claude.ai suggestions but in the mean time is there anything absurd that i'm missing?

version: "3" services:

valheim: container_name: Valheim-stack image: mbround18/valheim:latest ports:

2456:2456/udp

that looks pretty good, could you give me an ls -l in the backup folder?

MrQu33f commented 3 days ago

I'm away on business, I've got remote desktop on the host so I'll see if I can remote in and do it but my internet is flakey. Fingers crossed I can do it otherwise I'll have to do it in a month when I get back
