hi peeps.

Im early on my selfhosting journey and managed to setup some things as a test in docker. the main service im looking to run is ERPNext. after a while I got it up and running so now I want to back this up including all the customization I did in the app.

where to start with this? any intuitive guide?

Ah, good old dd

When you have some spare time, take a look at partclone - clonezilla uses it because it only backs up used blocks, not free space, so more efficient.
