DEVONtechnologiesTip of the day: We are big advocates of being diligent in your backups, especially if your data is important to you. Full and incremental machine backups are a great idea, but you may want a specific backup for the data of our apps too. Here is, how you do that. <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/backups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#backups</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/devonagent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#devonagent</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/devonthink" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#devonthink</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/pkm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pkm</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/productivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#productivity</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#research</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/tipoftheday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tipoftheday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.devontechnologies.com/tags/websearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#websearch</a> <a href="https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20250204-backup-data" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.devontechnologies.com/blog/20250204-backup-data</a>

mkjHappy World Backup Day!As they say on Qo'noS: Today is good day to not lose your data!Don't forget to verify your backups from time to time.

Dmitry KudryavtsevSo I needed to run some periodic backup jobs, both for personal and professional needs. If were you ever tasked with such a request, you probably looked at cron. But cron has shortcoming: it does not survive power off events, it does not support any logs, and you can’t easily tell when, and if it was ran.Meet systemd timers. A modern approach to running cron-like job-scheduling.<a href="https://yieldcode.blog/post/working-with-systemd-timers/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://yieldcode.blog/post/working-with-systemd-timers/</a><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/cron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cron</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/backups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#backups</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/SelfHosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SelfHosting</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/server_management" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#server_management</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a>

Quokkaso as part of my <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/selfhosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosting</a> journey I hit my first (expected) accidental blowing-away of important stuff. Still, I learned that the full-system <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/backups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#backups</a> being written off to my NAS could indeed be restored quickly and easily. Also, read the doco.
