Instructions for importing into a fresh AWS account

Open posix4e opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Saw the entire account loses access and the user needs to restart the nextcloud from a fresh instance. How would one do that? I see the data is split between s3/efs and postgresql. Perhaps a short section on backing this whole thing up and restoring it in the readme would be helpful?

  1. Adding a section in disaster recovery and backup strategy is a good idea. Will consider working on it.

Reason why data is split between EFS and S3 relates to how the official Docker image is build. Against container best practices they maintain persistence, such as config, within the container image on file system basis. See https://github.com/nextcloud/docker/pull/1548

  1. "Saw the entire account loses access", do you refer to an AWS Account or access to the nextcloud deployment? Loosing access to your AWS account is nothing i can cover here. Breaking the nextcloud deployment is covered then by point 1 from my pov.
