Matt
Just to check, without getting the server out the cupboard and plugging in a monitor.
would i be able to boot of the cloned drive if somthing goes tits up with the main drive?
Thanks
Matt
Perfect, Thats working now.
Thank you
Matt
Hi
Ive got 2 identicle drives, 120SSD's, one is my boot drive and one is a spare that i wanted to use to make a backup of the system drive.
Using the Disk Clone plugin, i can select the 'source' drive, but when i go to select the 'destination' drive it just goes red and i cant select or type anything.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Just found this scrip, its perfect for what i wanted. have used it and it worked great. Thank you.
One thing is there a way to automate weekly unattended backups?
Cron job maybe?
Thanks matt
Thanks for the reply...
im curently looking into the 'backup' plugin.
dd the system drive to a shared folder ( probably a usb drive )
what would be the process of restoring this is the main drive fails.
Matt
Does clonezilla plugin still exsist?
just had a system drive failure and spent a week 'rebuilding' everything.
or is there a new better way to do a automated complete os drive backup, plugging in monitor/keyboard isnt ideal as server is in the loft.
Matt
Ok Thank you
Matt
So those containers wont update?
'n/a means it doesn't support the image registry for that image or it is locally built'
could you expand on this a bit?
What does it mean?
Thank you
Thank you for your reply.
Using watchtower as an example as it says available..
Go to services, click pull and this pops ups..
watchtower Pulling
watchtower Pulled
END OF LINE
Doesnt seem to make a difference and still says 'available'
Thank you
Matt
Just noticed this under 'images' in doceker,
What do the different 'current' 'NA' and 'available' mean?
im guessing updates to the containers, how would i update them?
Thank you.
Matt
soooo.....
the vm is running and i can connect to it via virt-manager, although i cannot connect to it via vnc viewer.
Matt
Thanks very much for your replies.
System updated and restarted and all working great again.
Thank you
Also looking around something else has changed.
When i set it all up i set up a shared folder ( docker_compose ) as per the settings page, and all container has a sub directory in there ie docker_compose/jellyfin.
Now on the root of same drive there are indivdual folders called docker_composejellyfin and docker_composenextpvr etc.
Matt
Im pretty new to omv/docker so i may be wrong here...
There was a update to omv this moring including i think 'docker compose'
Previosly when i created a docker compose file, i clicked save and then the yellow bar popped up along the top to save changes.
Now after this mornings update that yellow bar doesnt pop up and i get a error when i check or pull the new conatiner.
500 - Internal Server Error Failed to execute command 'export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin; export LANG=C.UTF-8; export LANGUAGE=; docker-compose --file '/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-5d195a80-4c71-4616-b9d1-bbd33af7027c/docker_compose/adguardhome/adguardhome.yml' --env-file '/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-5d195a80-4c71-4616-b9d1-bbd33af7027c/docker_compose/adguardhome/adguardhome.env' config 2>&1': Couldn't find env file: /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-5d195a80-4c71-4616-b9d1-bbd33af7027c/docker_compose/adguardhome/adguardhome.env
im 99.9% certain thats the same error i would get when i was learning docker compose when i pulled or checked and i forgot to click save on the yellow first?
Somthings changed somewhere as ive tried with a known good compose file and it brings up the same error.
Any pointers would be great.
Thank you
Matt
Ive found this the easiest way, just add your drives to the volume section of the docker compose.
Matt
got a bit further, script goes through no errors but when starting the vm it shows vnc port 5900, but cant connet to it. viewer just times out.
under volumes it shows 1 active, but when i go to kvm/volumes it doesnt show anything. but the vm has 3 hdds attached.
Matt
ive been trying this script....
get this error at the end...

So after a few years away from omv and using a synologyNAS ive gone back to omv with version 6 after needing a bit more 'grunt' and freedom from the synology system.
Ive got all my needed apps setup and working perfect with docker, jellyfin, hdhomerun, qbittorrent etc.
How can i back all these up so that if i do need to reinstall the system at anytime i can restore them and not loose my jellyfin library etc?
Thank you
