Backup widget

Shows each backup job at a glance: the last run, the next scheduled run, and whether a run is in progress. An unreachable service says so. It never reports success in its place.

Small
Medium
Small shows one job. Medium shows three, here with one failed and one still running.

Small holds one slot. Medium holds three. Each slot reads one job.

Settings for each slot

  • ProviderDuplicati, Kopia, Proxmox Backup Server, Backrest, or None for an empty slot.
  • Display nameReplaces the job name shown on the card.Optional
  • Link URLWhere clicking the slot opens. Duplicati opens the job log, Kopia the snapshot list and Backrest the plan under it. Proxmox Backup Server opens the address itself. Leave blank to use the service address, if your browser can reach it.Optional

A slot reads one backup group, such as vm/100. The card is named from the newest backup’s notes, else the group.

  • Give the token the Audit role. On the datastore, the card shows the last backup, and failed if the newest backup failed verification. On /, it also shows running and failed backup tasks.
  • A backup older than 25 hours shows a warning.
  • Proxmox Backup Server does not hold the backup schedule, so the card shows no next run.

A slot reads one plan. The card shows the last run, the next run, and missed when Backrest marks the plan overdue.

Backrest has no read-only user. Any Backrest login has full control of Backrest. Stackyard only reads from it.
