Trying to restore System Borg backup

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Hello,


    I've spent a couple of hours looking for a similar request, but unfortunately I couldn't find any help (yet); please let me know if this process is documented somewhere.


    After I upgraded to OMV 7, my list of available packages was empty in the workbench and command lines were sending multiple errors.

    Last night, after doing different commands, I totally nuked my installation, forcing me to reinstall from scratch OMV 7.


    Obviously, since then I'm not able to access my files on my data disk, which would be a major heartbreak for my wife and I.


    Fortunately, I did a Borg backup 2 weeks ago from the workbench, that looks like this:




    As I'm totally clueless and super scared that I've lost it all, can someone direct me to my next steps ?



    Thanx a lot in advance, I really appreciate any feedback.

    Thanks to this excellent guide for fsarchiver auanasgheps, I was able to restore the partition & UEFI tables, but I don't know how to restore the system partition (because I need the same guide for Borg, not fsarchiver).

    Does anyone know what are my next steps ?


    Thanx everyone.

    Here is a basic restore procedure using fsarchiver for the same hard drive but a change went bad:

    • Boot systemrescuecd - if you installed the iso from omv-extras, it will be in your grub menu.
    • Mount your data drive - example: mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/backup
    • Figure out where your backup file is. fsarchiver uses the .fsa extension - example: /mnt/backup/omvbackup/backup-omv-07-May-2018_10-36-31.fsa
    • Figure out what your OS drive root partiton is. Don't get this wrong! - example: /dev/sda1
    • Restore the

    I have a similar problem - I need to restore the system from a backup. Fortunately from the previous day. However, I have a problem identifying the correct files and I don't know how to restore them. I don't have any files with the extension dd or gz. The only large files are in the Borgbackup/Data directory. They don't have any extension, they're just marked with numbers. How to restore backup?
