List of services backup stops/doesn't stop

[Aevrin]

I wanted to confirm if there's a list of services that are stopped, or not stopped during a backup? My plan is to use docker to provide many services, including some not in dietpi, but I want to make sure that backup stops docker so I can backup any volumes. Then I can have syncthing sync the backups to an offsite instance.

following services will be stopped automatically during backup https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/blob/master/dietpi/dietpi-services#L115

And some special we don't touch https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/blob/master/dietpi/dietpi-services#L279

Thanks, I had gotten lost looking in things and missed the obvious pointers (not to mention that I don't code except for fun).

You can also run this command to see which services are started (and hence also stopped at first), which is exactly what dietpi-backup does as well:

dietpi-services start

Note that Docker containers can be configured to not stop with the Docker daemon itself, but by default they are.

I don't have a currently running install, I decommissioned my last two before I moved everything to docker and use omv and vanilla Oracle Ubuntu. I'm looking at moving back to dietpi, and was preparing my way.
