operation performed: saved the incremental backup (snapshot) to ftp space using rclone config, v-add-backup-host-restic, v-backup-users-restic. copied the key to /usr/local/hestia/data/users/username/restic.conf, created a new hestiacp installation on a new server, created the same user to import, created the restic.conf file and pasted the first server’s key. the new server sees the snapshot in the ftp space. attempted to restore the snapshot both from the hestia panel and from the v-restore-user-full-restic user key command. the original user on server 1 had 3 domains, the restored user on server 2 has only 1 domain. all attempts to restore the other domains failed.
someone has tryed to verify the problem? i made several try but no results. a backup system that can not be restored in case of disaster is not a good backup system. maybe is the case to remove restic and use something else?
Same problem here. Even restoring to the same server has the same problem.
@eris do you have some idea how to fix this problem?
v-restore-user-restic user secret key should work fine…
The restic restore only works properly if you only have 1 domain for the user. If you have multiple domains for the user, it does not restore the additional domains. I have modified my v-restore-restic* bin files per the comments in the github, which causes it to work properly every time, even for multiple domains.

nothing changed with new hestiacp versions. the snapshot restore is still buggy. definitively dangerous to use this system for backups.
