HA supervisor crashes when restoring a Core backup

FPSUsername · July 8, 2024, 6:56pm

I just did a fresh install of HA supervisor and want to restore my quite simple Core backup, as I want to use the addons for Zigbee2MQTT.
Every time I try to restore the backup, HA crashes and I’ve no easy way to fix it without reinstalling HA again (since there’s no home-assistant.service running).

Is the supervisor version incapable of restoring a Core backup?

So you had a core install and want to restore a backup from this to a Home Assistant OS install?

That should be possible, if for some reason it is not you can open an issue here: Issues · home-assistant/operating-system · GitHub

However if you want to get up and running now:

Install a fresh copy of HA OS.
Do the on onboarding steps, create any throwaway user account (it will be overwritten)
Install the SAMBA or SSH addon.
Open your backup with 7zip or similar and extract everything from homeassistant.tar/data/config (I don’t have access to a backup at the moment to check the actual path but it is something like that)
Copy everything from your backup /config folder to your system /config folder using SAMBA or SSH
Restart Home Assistant
Log in with your old credentials.

Hi Tom,

No, I don’t want to restore the backup on HA OS, I want to upgrade the core installation (that’s available in the DietPI OS ‘storefront’) to the supervisor version so that I can use the addon store.

I did read in the backup integration that restoring is only an option for HA OS. If I’d want to restore on core or supervisor, I’d have to manually move over the files.

Unfortunately, CGroup version is also often forced to v2 and rerunning the supervisor installer as shown here doesn’t really solve the issue, so it’s a bit tedious to set up the supervisor version.

Note: if I knew earlier that I wanted to run HA, I’d have chosen HA OS, but I currently have dietpi with quite some things running (plex mediaserver, radarr, sonarr, etc) that would take a lot of time to set up again (I never really “distro hopped” before and done a backup + restore).

Just change step 1 to your supervised version then.
