How to access backup logs?

Where are backup logs stored?

Backup logs are stored locally on your server in the /tmp/snaper directory. Each backup has its own log file named after the backup. For example, if you have a backup named crimson-surf, its logs will be available in the file /tmp/snaper/crimson-surf.log.

How to view backup logs?

The easiet way to view the logs of a specific backup is to use the tail command in your terminal. For example, to view the last 100 lines of the crimson-surf backup logs, you can run:

tail -n 100 /tmp/snaper/crimson-surf.log

How to find the backup name associated with a specific path?

You can list all the backups configured on your server along with their corresponding paths using the following command:

snaper list files

This command will display a table with the backup names and their associated paths. For example, the output might look like this:

BACKUP NAME    PATH
-----------    ----
crimson-surf   /etc/nginx/sites-available
summer-sea     /etc/letsencrypt
damp-cloud     /var/www/blog
spring-fog     /var/www/blog-fr
purple-tree    /var/www/datashelter.tech
