Basically title. I’m in the process of setting up a proper backup for my configured containers on Unraid and I’m wondering how often I should run my backup script. Right now, I have a cron job set to run on Monday and Friday nights, is this too frequent? Whats your schedule and do you strictly backup your appdata (container configs), or is there other data you include in your backups?

    Absolutely, my backup solution is actually based on BTRFS snapshots. I use btrbk (already mentioned in another reply) to take the snapshots and copy them to another drive. Then a nightly restic job backs up the latest snapshot to B2.
