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,
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
Perfect !!!
