    oh I was thinking a full instance backup. As an instance admin it’d be nice to backup the whole thing in a standardized way so someone else could grab it and spin it up if I collapsed tomorrow, all the community and users

      If the instance is setup as a docker container, then it should be easy. The following should be transferred

      • docker-compose file
      • zipped up volume directory

      At the destination, the docker volume dirs should be unzipped and the new paths should be updated in the docker-compose file. I’m sure someone would have made a script for this by now.
