Hi,
until last week, my installation was running on RPI3, using a micro-sd-card. Last week it began to stuck and I restarted to move to docker. After installation of docker and initialization of HA, I wanted to recover a backup. I reached the point, where I can see the backup in the web interface and could create a new backup. What was not possible was, to recover the installation from the old backup, there’s no action or button to do so …
Any hints?
Best regards, Markus
Been there done that
What I did was
I couldn’t even Samba share in
had a brain fart what about setting up FTP add-on did that
then install Filezilla and log in and get the backup off the box
then I unzip the said file
and unzip some more until I found the config folder
look found all my bits
added all the addons first like ESPhome and node-RED
copied the folders back to my HA box and did a restart yeap that work happy camper
now the tricky bit getting my views back
went into the .storage folder and found a Lovelace file
bugger it’s in JSON file ok go to google and ask: convert JSON file the YAML
paste my JSON file in and convert it to Yaml then went back to HA and did a raw Configuration edit
and pasted the same code in and shit it work.
hope this helps and gives you some ideas
