I deployed ignition using compose file, but I want to add logging and to it, and most importantly backup and restore its data
Hi Ifeoluwashola_Adaral,
Here is our documentation regarding Docker Images. It includes sections on logging, and methods for backup and restore, specifically under "Logging Settings" and "Automating the Restore of a Gateway Backup".

Thanks Ben_Eklund
Just in case you can also assist with this. I set scheduled backup but I'm getting permission denied error.
Show the filepath you are trying to write to. Ensure the gateway service has permission to write there.

Oh, thanks
I'll check the permission and resolve it.
It looks like you've configured the target for your scheduled backups as /var/backups. Unless you've got a bind-mount or something that links back to your host (where that path is writable), you'll get Permission denied. In the container image, only /usr/local/bin/ignition (and subfolders) are writable by the ignition user (which is the default user in the container, UID/GID of 2003).
Also, keep in mind that it is difficult for folks to help when you start multiple threads for the same issue, as I think has happened with your other replies here.
