Create a full snapshot, offload it to another computer and delete old snapshots to prevent filling up the SD-Card.

• [x] Scheduled daily full backup automation

• [x] Dropbox Sync addon

• [x] Manual Dropbox Sync

• [x] Dropbox Sync script

• [x] Dropbox Sync automation

• [x] One automation to rule them all

• Dropbox?

• Exclude database to limit snapshot time and size

Ideally the Dropbox sync would be triggered by a folder watcher in the backup directory.
