# Backups We use [borg](https://www.borgbackup.org/) to create encrypted and deduplicated backups. The backups are encrypted with a (key unlocked by a) secure passphrase that is deployed to the respective node and stored in the [pass repository](https://gitlab.com/qo.is/pass) resp. the sops files in this repository. Service specific restore instructions are given in the respective services' documentation. ## Host Backups All hosts make automated backups. See Modules `qois.backup-client` and `qois.backup-server` for details. ## Verify Backups Manually ```bash ssh root@lindberg-nextcloud.backplane.net.qo.is -- systemctl status borgbackup-job-system-cyprianspitz.service ssh root@lindberg-webapps.backplane.net.qo.is -- systemctl status borgbackup-job-system-cyprianspitz.service ssh root@lindberg.backplane.net.qo.is -- systemctl status borgbackup-job-system-cyprianspitz.service ```
