In-reply-to » I need to fully automate my backup/recovery process. I use restic as my primary backup/recovery tool and documented a process for Docker volume backup and restore with restic which I also use to backup Docker local volumes (unfortuantely requires small amounts of downtime per service) -- There is also this nice tool called auto-restic which I haven't gotten around to using yet, which I thinik will help with automating. Right now I still kick the process of by-hand, whenever I feel I should probably do another backup 🤦‍♂️

Woohoo 🥳 Finally fixed the remaining bugs in my set of shell scripts for backing up Docker volumes:

https://git.mills.io/prologic/backup-docker-volumes

Has the behavior of:

  • Given a Docker node;
  • Find all active volumes.
  • For each volume, find its running container or service,
  • Stop the Container or scale down the Service.
  • Run the backup on the volume
  • Restart the Container or scale up the Service.
