## Borg backup support
Thanks to [Aine](https://gitlab.com/etke.cc) of [etke.cc](https://etke.cc/), the playbook can now set up [Borg](https://www.borgbackup.org/) backups with [borgmatic](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/) of your Matrix server.
See our [Setting up borg backup](docs/configuring-playbook-backup-borg.md) documentation to get started.
## (Compatibility Break) Upgrading to Synapse v1.57 on setups using workers may require manual action
If you're running a worker setup for Synapse (`matrix_synapse_workers_enabled: true`), the [Synapse v1.57 upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/v1.57.0rc1/docs/upgrade.md#changes-to-database-schema-for-application-services) say that you may need to take special care when upgrading:

The backup will run based on `matrix_backup_borg_schedule` var (systemd timer calendar), default: 4am every day.
By default, if you're using the integrated Postgres database server (as opposed to [an external Postgres server](configuring-playbook-external-postgres.md)), Borg backups will also include dumps of your Postgres database. An alternative solution for backing up the Postgres database is [postgres backup](configuring-playbook-postgres-backup.md). If you decide to go with another solution, you can disable Postgres-backup support for Borg using the `matrix_backup_borg_postgresql_enabled` variable.

The playbook can install and configure [docker-postgres-backup-local](https://github.com/prodrigestivill/docker-postgres-backup-local) for you.
For a more complete backup solution (one that includes not only Postgres, but also other configuration/data files), you may wish to look into [borg backup](configuring-playbook-backup-borg.md) instead.
