Hi there,
I have a general question about restoring backups made using Yunohost. I don’t have the case at the moment, but I remember that at one point I wanted to restore a “small application” (Dokuwiki, a few dozen MB) from a full backup (including all the system configuration and all the applications on my Yunohost server) and I couldn’t do it because the free space left on the server wasn’t enough (if I remember correctly). I still had dozens of GB free, but less than the size of the backup I wanted to restore from: is that the reason? Yunohost needs to decompress the whole backup to restore only the desired application, and so it was blocking?
I managed to deal with it without restoring that time, but I’m a bit worried if later I really need to restore an application from a full backup (e.g. in the event of mishandling that would destroy an application, because in the case of application updates by Yunohost I know that there are automatically generated backups before the updates). Is there any way of “extracting” only part of the backup? Or decompress the backup on a disk other than the one on which Yunohost is installed?
Thanks in advance for any clarifications.
