The plugins store their web interface settings in /etc/openmediavault/config.xml. But the service that plugin controls may store it settings/configuration in many places. Typically, it is best to backup the entire OS drive. In your case, clone the SD card.
What is your advice then, point storage place on SD card or somewhere in "main" storage for NAS?
You can't change where the settings are stored.
What do you mean by cloning SD card - having both of them as redundant copy, or backup on HDD?
Whenever you make major changes, I recommend making a copy/clone/whatever of the SD card to wherever you feel secure about it. Worst case, you have to re-install/reconfigure OMV and your data is still on the data drive.
You can't change where the settings are stored.
I meant service's settings. E.g. when I was installing CouchPotato I could define where I want to keep the files - and those I am talking about if it is better to keep on HDD or SD with the system.
I don't which is better. It depends on the service. If settings change all the time, I would probably put them on the data drives. If they don't, put them on the OS drive.
On my server, I backup the OS drive to the data drives (when I make changes to the setup) and the data drives to another server. Even if I lost the OS backup, I could re-setup my server in a short time. So, I'm not overly concerned with plugin/service settings.
