Yes, as he wrote he don't create disk.img in this version.

 

A disk.img backup has the big disadvantage that it's huge. disk.img means you create a 1:1 copy of the ext4 filesystem with dd. So including all empty blocks. That means: Is the partition x GB big, is the backup also x GB big even when you only use 100MB.

Image builders use a trick to make image small. But this only works when you build the image. Not when you want to make a backup.

That is, if create  disk.img, this disk.img not install  from USB stick?

If you have a disk.img you can install/flash it via USB stick.

 

disk.img created with this version of the backup suite (http://forums.openpl...ndpost&p=614707) might not work!

Good Morning,

Pedro Thanks for all your work!

I was succesfully able to flash a very old image made by your Suite and transferred to an USB stick then to an XP1000! THis was from the time you made a backup image in the folder that could be used directly on a USB stick to flash the box afterwards.

 

But the settings @ the time of making the backup are not copied... correct? I am sorry to ask such a seemingly basic question but cannor find the answer nor here nor in your github... The name Fullbackup put me on the wrong idea... 

 

What extension or plugin should I use to backup the settings and bouquets and such?

 

Also I get an error message when using your backup suite version Git53 on an XP1000 with kernel 3.9 and an image from 12/2014

 

"

chmod: /hdd/bi/root.ubi: Permission denied

Maak nu het bestand: root.ubifsBack-up maken is niet gelukt

"

Sorry again if I post in the wrong place... thanks in advance for your work!

Where can I find the IPK versions of the backupsuite please?

 

TIA

- If you restore a backup then that is an image with all setiings etc as they were at the moment you made the backup

- in the github https://github.com/P...bie/BackupSuite are only the files no description

 

The plugin with the name automatic fullbackup is not mine but from Dimitrije

 

With the error message there must also be a logfile it is /tmp/BackupSuite.log. Place it here and maybe I can see what is the real problem.

 

There is no ipk version build anymore, just run an update or remove the old version and install the new version with Menu->Plugins->Green button/Download->Extensions->backupsuite (works only with a working internetconnection.

As of today the new models of VU+ are also supported like the VU+ Uno4K (download it here: https://openpli.org/.../vuplus/vuuno4k )

and the Ultimo 4K (no openpli image yet)

Hello, guys

Tomorrow I will change from VU+ Solo 2 to Uno 4K. Is it possible to make a backup to the settings to transfer them to the new box? I assume a total backup is not possible due to a different image and/or file system.

A total backup won't work of course but you can safe your settingslist (channels). I wouldn't restore anything else because the different architecture of both boxes

You can use the autobackup to make a backup of the most important files.

 

You should be able to restore it, with 2 exceptions:

- plugins that don't exist for the ARM achitecture will not be reinstalled

- your tuner config will be invalid

 

And you might have to checks paths if there is a difference there (with or without HDD, USB stick, etc).


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Many answers to your question can be found in our new and improved wiki.

Hi, sorry if this question has been answered before, i updated my openpli to the latest update and for some reason my backups wont install using backupsuite, so i put a fresh openpli install  and uploaded the latest backupsuite and still have the same problem,it backups but dont install, im guessing its because i have a old blackhole installed, had it for 2 years plus. Thanks

Your problem isn't clear to me:
- which receiver do you use?
- what kind of image are you running atyour attempts, Openpli or Blackhole?
- what kind of backups do you want to restore, Blackhole backups?
