Restored AIO to new server from backup, now borgbackup not creating backups

[emelbardis]

Had a rough day replacing drives in my server and had to reinstall and re-OS.
Used borgbackup to restore after installing fresh and it was amazing - everything came back just like I had it. Very nice implementation of borg!!

Issue now is that the system will not create new automatic backups or even an manual backup. I suspect it's that I'm using the original external drive on a fresh install and a permission or fingerprint is mismatched but I don't know how to check this.

How should I try to troubleshoot this?

user@drive:/backup$ ls -ld borg
drwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 116 Jan 15 07:06 borg

I suspect root here may not be correct and was added by my system when I installed the drive and mountpoint at OS install. NC can see the former backup entries but can't seem to create new ones.

From other solutions here, I tried to run sudo docker inspect nextcloud-aio-borgbackup
Which returns:

[]
Error: No such object: nextcloud-aio-borgbackup

Hi,

Very nice implementation of borg!!

Thanks for the kind feedback :)

Regarding your issue, can you post the output of sudo docker logs nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer here?

I sorted it out last night.

I did:

• Backup Integrity Check which took around 5 hours but succeeded
• Manual backup with Create Backup - finished after 59 minutes
• Had to set and save an automatic backup time

I first noticed automatic backups not running and this was because backup time was the only setting that didn't carry over with the restore. When I tried to create a manual backup of 2.79TB, it seemed to not do anything but it had been so long since I had watched a backup, I believe I didn't give it enough time to show any status.

Running iostat -x 1 was pretty key to letting me know that there was disk activity while it was getting ready to backup but before the backup logs updated status.

Bottom line is that the system worked as intended but I failed to complete a post restore step and also was too impatient while testing.

Thank you for making Nextcloud AIO such an awesome and easy to use and admin system!!
