OMV Backup - generated files

  • Hi all, I'm using OMV Backup feature with `dd full disk` settings on a Raspberry Pi2 B.
    I see that in the destination folder, many files are created:



    The first one is the one that I can `dd` to the microSD to fully rebuild my setup, right?


    What about the others?

    Yes.

    What about the others?

    The .packages file is a list of packages installed on your system at backup time. Might be useful info but not required for restore.

    The .fdisk file is the output of fdisk -l at backup time. Might be useful info but not required for restore.

    The others are helpful on x86 systems but not really an RPi.
