How does Dokploy manage backups (docker compose files) for remote servers?

[afunworm]

Hello, everyone.

So, I have a main Dokploy servers (D) with a bunch of remote servers (R1, R2, R3, etc.)

I know Dokploy SSH into the R servers to start, stop & deploy containers as well as perform volume backups.

In the Server settings, you can also set up Dokploy backup which will back up Dokploy's databases and the /etc/dokploy folder which contains all the docker composes and config, etc. But this will only apply to the server D.

How do I setup backup for the Dokploy folders for the remote servers?

Dokploy does not have folders on remote servers. Only services that run on those servers have volumes on those servers, and volumes you can backup with Volume backup.

I think you are talking about backup in Web Server menu, right? the things that, that server backup are all in the D server and volumes that are on services that a running on R servers are pulled and backuped.

Dokploy does create /etc/doploy on the remote servers to store all the composes as well as traefiks, applications for that server. So all D & R (1, 2, 3, etc.) have their own respective /etc/dokploy folders, and Dokploy can only back up the /etc/dokploy wherever it was deployed on. :(.

Yes, it is true that we do not currently back up folders on remote servers. However, a temporary solution is that if you use the current backup function, it will save all your domains. For example, if you have services on remote servers, simply saving the domains again will recreate the files on those servers.

Hello. Can you clarify more about domains? What domains are you referring to?

I'm just a bit lost with the comment. My apologies in advance.
