OS5 - are my old docker containers lost? - FIXED

Okay I didn’t do my research and upgraded to OS5. I saw docker was not supported but now is, and I’ve got it up and running. Unfortunately all my containers are lost. For most, not a big deal I can easily spin them up again. However I also lost my wife’s business website and a personal blog of hers (with only a months old backup of the latter and no backup of the former as I only set it a couple of weeks ago). Is there any way to spin these containers back up? I’m going to be in deeeeeep sh*t when she finds out!

I know I should have done a full backup but I stupidly believed I wouldn’t lose any data (as it states when upgrading) and had backups but the /opt folder is now empty with all my config files gone as well.

…Oh I have a PR4100.

Thanks in advance!

Crisis averted. After many hours it’s all back up and running. Another post here correctly states that everything is backed up here: /mnt/HD/HD_a2/.systemfile/OS3_Apps_Backup/Nas_Prog. I restored the _docker folder and everything powered back up. I had some issue with MariaDB in some of my containers which weirdly required changing permissions and installing version 10.4 of MariaDB.

All my custom scripts and container config files that were in /opt ended up in /mnt/HD/HD_a2/entware. No idea how they got there, maybe linked at an earlier point?!

Hope this helps someone in the same position with the same propensity to panic! :slight_smile:
