Does not create zstd backup, I see tar

[Dominus]

Hi, my Hestia has always created backups in zstd format, I saw that for a few months he has been creating them in .tar format.

I went to the settings and the zstd format is correctly dictated, I tried to put it and remove it but it is only creating them in tar, what can this problem depend on?

Thank you

Hi,

@Dominus

what can this problem depend on?

The main tar is not compressed, it is compressed inside tar.

Example:

❯ tar tf /backup/test.2026-03-07_05-10-12.tar | grep zst
./.zstd
./user_dir/.cache.tar.zst
./user_dir/.bashrc.tar.zst
./user_dir/.cloud-locale-test.skip.tar.zst
./user_dir/.local.tar.zst
./user_dir/.ssh.tar.zst
./user_dir/.profile.tar.zst
./user_dir/.config.tar.zst
./user_dir/.wp-cli.tar.zst
./user_dir/.vscode-server.tar.zst
./user_dir/.bash_logout.tar.zst
./user_dir/.npm.tar.zst
./user_dir/.composer.tar.zst
./db/test_fb/test_fb.mysql.sql.zst
