Is there a way to back it up right now with this method or do I manually
have to copy everything outside of dom0?

Thx in advance



i put my files in ~/salt and symlinked them to /srv/salt
then backups should work


Could you point to source for more information on your work?

Backups work slow (disk/network bottlenecks) & I'm also interested to
backup less.


i started to extend the salt documentation and just added an pull-request.
you can find my repo of the doc here:

https://github.com/john-david-r-smith/qubes-doc/blob/salt-doc/configuration/salt.md


here the correct link (i failed to push on my branch...):
https://github.com/john-david-r-smith/qubes-doc/blob/master/configuration/salt.md

I have not posted my work anywhere but I learned most things from this 
repo https://github.com/Nekroze/qubes-salt

 and of course the salt documentation and hints from John

[qubes-users] "Backup VMs" does not backup salt configuration

[qubes]

Hi,

I have now nearly a complete salt configuration for all my templates so 
I do not need to backup them anymore and save a lot of space by this.


So I have ran a backup including dom0 and realized that the salt 
configuration ("/srv/salt") does not seem to be included because it is 
much bigger than the MB listed for dom0.


Is there a way to back it up right now with this method or do I manually 
have to copy everything outside of dom0?


Thx in advance
