Description

Description
I'm using NCP with S3 as primary storage.
If I'm informed right, when my sd-card breaks or my nc-database is corrupted my files aren't readable at all.
To reduce the risk, I would like to make regular backups of my database.
While this is currently possible as part of the nc-backup-auto, the backup files are about 150MB for my setup (which is pretty basic).
The Database would be much smaller. So I'd love to make a regular backup of the database only.

The restoration could be to replace the database file inside the .tar.gz file or by a new nc-restore-db option.
Then you would have to nc-restore and then nc-restore-db
