@limelight79 I am saying two different methods of backup i.e one at file system level.. which the home assistant provides (to a cloud or local object storage) and one at block level (which I think where the snapshots you were referring to come into play)
@limelight79 I would still advise doing an alternate method(along with snapshot) of copy i.e tarred config directory as done by HA. I am not sure what happened(error message indicated disk corruption)but I couldn’t recover from the vm snapshots I had.
@shortwavesurfer This is a good strategy until I remember to do it diligently 😅.
The first step I did with my new install is to ensure that the cloud backup works(self hosted coming soon)
