Just a quick question on whether it is alright to have Dockge manage the Backrest/Restic container as one of its stack.

Currently my main directory is as follows:

  • ~/docker
    • dockge
    • stacks

I only have Dockge running as an independent container whose data is inside its respective folder. Every other container is managed via the stacks.

For context, I just want to back up the ~/docker directory and I am only planning to store the data in the same local machine for the time being but I wish to be able to import it to a different drive in the future. I just want a simple backup solution that is reliable and easy to manage.

Since it’s my first time setting up a backup solution like this, if you have useful advice on the steps for properly backing up data for my config, I would really appreciate it.
