💭 Description

I couldn't make a proper backup using instructions from this page: https://appwrite.io/docs/advanced/self-hosting/production/backups. Volumes archives ended up empty.

System: TrueNAS Scale 24.10.2.4 (Debian)
Environment: Docker via Dockge app.

I'm pretty new to appwrite, so maybe I'm missing something here, but I hope it may help someone.
The only way I could produce a proper backup was to use this script:

BACKUP_DIR="path/to/backup"
volumes=("uploads" "functions" "builds" "sites" "certificates" "config" "cache")
for volume in "${volumes[@]}"; do
  docker run --rm --volumes-from appwrite -v $PWD/$BACKUP_DIR:/backup ubuntu bash -c "cd /storage/$volume && tar cvf /backup/$volume.tar ."
done

This produces an error for mariadb and redis volumes, so I'm still using old backup instructions for those even if they produce empty archives because I'm not sure what those volumes should even include.

Please update instructions with a working version.
