Both live in the catalog on the location, so a new server sees them; the database holds
a local copy for the lists. The retention policy leaves a pinned restore point alone and
does not count it. Available on the restore page and as occ backup:pin and backup:note.
Backups now record each table's structure in the dump manifest. The full
restore creates tables that do not exist on the new instance (left behind
by apps that were removed or are switched off), lists all problems at
once, and no longer stops on apps that are missing. Foreign keys are not
checked while rows are loaded in name order, and checked again before the
restore commits (PostgreSQL: dropped and added back in the transaction).
--install-apps installs or enables the apps that were enabled at backup
time; --skip-missing-tables leaves out tables of older backups whose
structure is unknown. nextcloud-aio is never required.
backup:target:add without a key points to backup:key:import, and says that
connecting can take a while. Removing a location drops its cached index;
a migration removes the cache of locations that are gone.
The full-restore test now also runs on PostgreSQL with Mail (foreign keys)
and a disabled app.
RepositoryImportSource::copyToFolder() called putContent() on the generic
return type of Node::get(), which doesn't declare that method -- only
File does. Existing-file overwrite during a per-user restore would have
fatally errored at runtime; added an instanceof check and a resource leak
fix (finally-close) while there. Also guarded getFileAsStream() against
fopen() returning false.
Everything else Psalm (strict level) currently flags is mechanical
(missing `final` on leaf classes -- applied everywhere safe) or pre-existing
array-shape/type gaps, captured in psalm-baseline.xml so CI fails only on
new issues from here on, not the whole backlog at once.
A backup step killed by a time limit, OOM or kill -9 kept Nextcloud's
lock on its location for up to an hour, blocking every new start and the
run itself. Locations and runs are now guarded by leases in ngb_leases
with an expiry: a backup step holds them for its duration plus two
minutes, restores refresh theirs every minute, prune holds 30 minutes,
untrash 5. Nextcloud's lock is only used for the milliseconds in which a
lease is checked and written.
Also: starting a backup while one is already running simply continues
it (no exclusive lease needed), and running to completion waits instead
of spinning while a crashed step's lease has not expired.
Tested on NC34: a backup killed four times at random moments resumes on
its own after the lease expires (about two minutes), and restores
bit-identically.
S3 has no bucket quota, so NG Backup enforces one: before a pack is
uploaded, the stored size plus the pack must stay under the location's
limit, otherwise the backup stops with an error (and administrators are
notified through the failed run). Repacking during prune is exempt, as it
is how space is freed. occ backup:target:limit NAME [SIZE|none].
Also ignore credential files in the repository.
- RetentionPolicy (last/daily/weekly/monthly) and PruneService: forget
snapshots the policy drops, delete packs nothing uses and repack mostly
unused ones by copying encrypted blobs as-is; new packs are indexed
before old ones are removed
- a location lock keeps prune and backups apart; append-only locations
are never pruned (cleanup via the location's lifecycle rules)
- weekly prune from the background job; occ backup:prune [--dry-run],
backup:retention, backup:target:append-only
- tests: forget+prune frees space and the remaining snapshot restores
identically, repack of mixed packs, dry-run preview, retention buckets
Opening a repository lists index/ once and downloads only index files
that are not cached; packs written by this server are cached on write,
stale cache rows are dropped. Each resumable step therefore no longer
downloads every index file from the location.
- migration: ngb_targets, ngb_runs, ngb_snapshots
- KeyService: master key stored encrypted with the instance secret
(unattended backups), passphrase-wrapped copy in every repository and
in the recovery kit, recorded admin confirmation per key fingerprint
- TargetService: locations built from files_external backends without a
mount; files_external is loaded through IAppManager::loadApp() and its
enabled state is left alone; credentials encrypted with ICrypto;
existing repositories are adopted only if made with this key, and a
repository cannot be registered twice
- Repository: initWithKey/openWithKey with an encrypted key check
- occ: backup:key:init|kit|confirm, backup:target:backends|add|list|remove
