Backing up Addon and system
Hi, I've got a RN316 at work which now has a number of services running on it from the list of addons: Orange HRM, Ajaxplorer, MySQL etc. These now have data and config in them. I'm wondering what...

Saving the config is a manual process, there is no way to schedule it. The output zip is created in /tmp, and then is copied over the network. With Chrome I am not getting a prompt to choose the destination folder, and it would be copied over the network twice if I could chose a networked destination or a mapped drive.
I think selecting "everything" does include /data/.apps (which is /apps), but on my RN102 that is a very slow option (and in my case the folder holds about 350 MB). I am thinking it is not the right way to do what you need even with the faster 316.
Are you backing up the full data volume? If so, /data/.apps may already be there (though I am not sure, as I don't use this particular option).
You can copy /data/.apps using a frontview SMB backup job. Select "remote Windows/NAS (timestamp)" as the source, with the NAS IP address as the host. Use data/.apps as the path (using NAS admin credentials for the login fields). Then select a local share as the destination.
