hi peeps.

Im early on my selfhosting journey and managed to setup some things as a test in docker. the main service im looking to run is ERPNext. after a while I got it up and running so now I want to back this up including all the customization I did in the app.

where to start with this? any intuitive guide?

    In addition to daily backups, once a month I image the drive. I wrote a simple script triggered by a cron job to image the drive to a NAS backup. The daily backups go to 3 different offsite storage facilities, and two go to separate NAS drives. All drive images are kept both local and off premise as well. So, for individual files, etc, I can restore them from the daily backups. If the wheels fall off, I can restore the whole drive from an image. Might be a bit over engineered but I’ve been caught a few times and so I just decided that won’t happen again.
