    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.7.2 -Apr 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    It would be really helpful to have 2 backups of my router. One with and one without the swapfile so that, if for whatever reason, the primary backup (without) is unable to restore my router then I can attempt it with the secondary backup (with). I've had issues with recreating the swapfile...

    @Viktor Jaep is there anyway we could get the option to include/exclude the swapfile in the secondary backups, separate from the primary config?

    Sorry @Viktor Jaep , I forgot to mention that I have backed up to AND restored from secondary NFS (Main NFS Server, different IP) without any issues (without swapfile). I wanted to try it because I had issues when trying to recreate my 5GB swapfile (I know it's overkill but I've got space to...

    @Viktor Jaep I'll post the testing step by step incase I've missed something: Here is the directory before: ls -aln Router/ASUSMerlin/RT-AX88U/ total 420 drwxrwxrwx+ 1 1032 65540 220 Mar 21 17:28 . drwxrwxrwx+ 1 1032 65540 16 Mar 19 11:54 .. drwxrwxrwx+ 1 1032 65540 90 Mar 21 07:21...

    That's awesome. This will definitely useful for when I start looking into custom scripts. Just tested and it is the same error. Messages: INFO: Backup Target (192.168.1.13) reachable via PING. INFO: External test drive mount point exists. Found under: /tmp/mnt/backups STATUS: External test...

    @Viktor Jaep Thanks for the amazing work you've done on this and for being so interactive in this community. Here are my results: 1. Test NFS Mount Options were not asked for when manually configuring (might be useful to others when configuring/optimizing NFS to use different options than the...

    It's a habit for me to obfuscate anything identifying when writing on public forums 🤷‍♂️

    It's a Sandisk Ultra Fit Flashdrive until I am able to get a small enough SSD to replace it with. Thanks. That worked. @Viktor Jaep It backed up successfully. 55 Mar 20 2024 15:58:04 router BACKUPMON[19132] - INFO: Successfully wrote a new config file 56 Mar 20 2024 15:58:11 router...

    Run it without the trailing slash and added the verbose flag. Still got the same result: user@router:/tmp/mnt# tar -zvcf /tmp/mnt/backups/Router/ASUSMerlin/RT-AX88U/19/usbdrive-test.tar.gz -C /tmp/mnt/Drive1 tar: empty archive Is there anyway to backup without the EXT Drive for the sake of...

    @Viktor Jaep it was still mounted on /backups but I'm assuming it's because the backup did not complete successfully? Anyway, this is what I got: user@router:/tmp/mnt# tar -zcf /tmp/mnt/backups/Router/ASUSMerlin/RT-AX88U/19/usbdrive-test.tar.gz -C /tmp/mnt/Drive1/ tar: empty archive...

    Just tested it and it failed to complete the backup. Mounting with & without mount options worked and it was able to write the data. Below are the logs: 33 Mar 19 2024 11:52:31 router BACKUPMON[12091] - INFO: Successfully wrote a new config file 34 Mar 19 2024 11:53:14 router BACKUPMON[12091]...
