Trigger a backup manually

You can manually trigger a backup run outside of the defined cron schedule by executing the backup command inside the container:

docker exec <container_ref> backup

If the container is configured to run multiple schedules, you can source the respective conf file before invoking the command:

docker exec <container_ref> /bin/sh -c 'set -a; source /etc/dockervolumebackup/conf.d/myconf.env; set +a && backup'
