## Common questions

### Can I schedule backups of Docker appdata with Appdata Backup/Restore v2?

Yes, it can create backups of your docker appdata folder on a schedule and restore them after a cache drive failure.

### Does Appdata Backup/Restore v2 protect against losing the entire Unraid server?

It is described as backing up Appdata to another location on your Unraid instance, so it does not help if the server itself is lost to fire, theft, flood, or multiple disk failures.

### Will Appdata Backup/Restore v2.5 work on UnRAID 6.12.x and newer?

No, the Appdata Backup/Restore v2.5 plugin will no longer work on newer installs like UnRAID 6.12.x and newer.
