Just wanted to take a moment to show some gratitude towards the HA team for having such a complete and functioning backup system now!
We lost power this weekend, and despite the VM running Home Assistant shutting down safely, for some reason it decided not to boot when we got power back this morning. Luckily, though, I had the auto-backups turned on and sent to network storage. Within minutes, plus minor network setup, I had a brand new VM up and running with my data from before the outage like it never even happened.
I'm normally one to disaster test backups before I need them, but never got around to it here. Thankfully some great people work on this project and built a system that just works!
