Updated the backup! We'll keep a 7 day window of rolling backups for the database (backup each day, remove backups older than 7 days), and we'll keep a single backup of the user-uploaded content (currently sitting at 14GB)

Also made a robustness fix/patch with the docker config just now.

So saved games aren't backed up then ?

I also configured a manual database export to backup the forums information on a nightly basis.

I disabled the linode server backup feature, that costs $2.50

Trade-off:

Okay, that was frisky, but now done! The latest L&F looks a bit different..

Upgrades:

The new forums is no managed via automation! Some instructions at: https://github.com/triplea-game/infrastructure/blob/main/docs/forums.md

Using the automation, I was able to very easily upgrade from 4.10 to 4.11, a very good sign going forward.

Worthy of a mention, the NodeBB and MongoDB behind the forums are both running on docker containers. That will help up us patch and upgrade the OS, before we had to make sure that the OS and NodeBB+MongoDB stayed compatible. Now the two can be upgraded independently.
