I think i can answer some of these myself now
2 more question
Hey @seertenedos, sorry for a late reply. 1) The main reason is that the plug-in uses the fsfreeze Linux call in order to freeze partition before backup. And the fsfreeze cannot be used with a directory, only with a partition. 2) The data will only take 5mb or a little more because the loopback partition is expanding automatically. 3) Yes, it is by default. 4) There will be an unexpected error, please choose appropriate size. 5) A volume is being backed up only when it is mounted to a container. It will be not destroyed after unmount. 6) If a volume does not exist then it will be restored from a restic repo. 7) Please open a feature request. 8) For now I think there is no a simple way to do it.
Plugin looks like what I have been looking for. I just had the following questions
This seems perfect for my use case of backups as well as move volumes between hosts.
