So I bought an external SSD (Samsung T7), reinstalled and restored my full backup from yesterday. Seems to be stuck at restore in process, but I got several notifications already, so I guess it’s working. Logging into the app from my mobile works fine and things are looking ok. MQTT broker is online, but NodeRED is not started yet, so I will give it some more time (it’s been almost two hours now).
Thanks all for your quick help!
Just wait. My restore takes 3-4 hours, and i’m not the only one complaining about this…
It’s been 20 hours now, still stuck at restore in process. Pretty long for a 210MB backup to restore. What to do? Can I safely reboot it? I noticed most addons are not started (yet). Supervisor log does not show any errors.
UPDATE: After 26 hours I copied the Restore In Progess page url into a new tab (instead of refreshing the page) and it just loaded my GUI. I then took the plunge and reboot the system. It took slightly longer than I was used to, but all appears ok now.
Thanks again all for the help and suggestions.
