Someone recommended it for keeping my containers up to date automatically. I checked out the repo and it seems too good to be true. It just updates your containers when a new image is available and everything just works out of the box? I'm a bit scared of just leaving it alone in case it might break something. The fact that it doesn't come with a gui also scares me a bit.

Does anyone here use it and can recommend it? Any horror stories?

  • 3 VMs in Proxmox hosting 70 containers get backed up everyday with ProxmoxBackupServer (VM in my primary NAS) to a NFS mounted folder on my primary NAS
  • Primary NAS (with 7 containers) gets backed up with Snapshot replication to my secondary NAS everyday.

  • And once a month I backup my primary NAS (not the whole thing,only the important folders) to a USB drive that I store at a friends house.
