Nextcloud VM backup and restore scripts

For moving nextcloud vm installations from one vm to another or in order to move from nextcloud-vm@ubuntu16 to nextcloud-vm@ubuntu18 as well later again from nextcloud-vm@ubuntu18 to nextcloud-vm@ubuntu20 I successfully used the following two scripts, which therefore I highly can recommend:

• https://codeberg.org/DecaTec/Nextcloud-Backup-Restore
• https://codeberg.org/DecaTec/Nextcloud-Backup-Restore/raw/branch/master/NextcloudBackup.sh
• https://codeberg.org/DecaTec/Nextcloud-Backup-Restore/raw/branch/master/NextcloudRestore.sh 

Download the scripts to /root/:

sudo -i
cd ~
wget https://codeberg.org/DecaTec/Nextcloud-Backup-Restore/raw/branch/master/NextcloudBackup.sh
wget https://codeberg.org/DecaTec/Nextcloud-Backup-Restore/raw/branch/master/NextcloudRestore.sh

Secure the scripts:

chown root NextcloudBackup.sh
chown root NextcloudRestore.sh
chmod 700 NextcloudBackup.sh
chmod 700 NextcloudRestore.sh

Execute the scripts:

./NextcloudBackup.sh
./NextcloudRestore.sh 20201223_223941

To mount a SMB/CIFS share:  

mkdir /mnt/cifsdir
sudo mount -t cifs -o user=YourSMBUser,password=YourVeryLongPassSentence //192.168.0.10/somedir /mnt/cifsdir
