hi @dkerlee , Thanks for posting this. I am also looking at a better/easier way to backup my Immich instance inside Unraid. I am not great with the commands in the docs... I had a couple of questions about your script; what is BACKUP_DIR & BACKUP_DIR2 ? I assume the first is where the backup is going.. what is the second for? Also, what is the reference to nextcloud within the script for? |

the cp $BACKUP_DIR/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx command line copies the one back up to a second location. So I have that postgresbackup in two places: DIR, and DIR2. The external USB and the internal disk pool. The last line: "# Rotate backups.........." Dude! I asked chatgpt to write this stuff for me, and just changed it a bit. Pretty darn cool.
I realize that muddies the waters a bit as this is immich github. But it's what I got, and might be helpful (or confusing! Which is why you asked!). |

I am using dbbackup to backup the db in the immich upload folder. |

I added these scrips that seem to work fine in Community Applications > User Scripts.
postgresql-backup-script.txt
and the actual pics:
#!/bin/bash
rsync -av --progress /mnt/user/memories/immich/library /mnt/disks/TOSHIBA_EXTERNAL_USB/immich
rsync -av --progress /mnt/user/memories/immich/upload /mnt/disks/TOSHIBA_EXTERNAL_USB/immich
rsync -av --progress /mnt/user/memories/immich/profile /mnt/disks/TOSHIBA_EXTERNAL_USB/immich
Then I just look at that external hard drive from time to time to make sure everything is there.
