Relatively new user, only set up this TrueNAS server about 8 months ago.
AMD Ryzen5 5600G
16GB RAM
256GB SSD system drive
2x4TB mirror pool (pool name = secondpool)
a 3rd 4TB is connected, but not in any pool; it held the original data which was imported into the TrueNAS pool. Can now be used to copy/backup any needed files, pools, data, etc., if needed, or added to the pool, if that's of benefit.
Installed Nextcloud plugin months ago, and have been auto uploading all pic/vids from my mobile phone (including the years of pics/vids which were already on the phone. All was well.
For some reason, I ended up with 2 nextcloud plugins, along with 2 jails for those plugins. I believe this occurred when I was trying to figure out the best way to duplicate/back up the entire nextcloud installation and its data. Those 2 instances coexisted peacefully for a few months, before I decided to mess with it more; I know, a very ignorant move to only partially understand TrueNAS Core and IOCage/jails prior to trying to manipulate the data. On 12/30, I uninstalled what I thought was the duplicate Nextcloud plugin, and both plugins and both jails were gone.
I have recursive snapshots of my only zfs pool (but no separate snapshot for the individual IOCage for Nextcloud), which were taken 1 or 2 days prior to losing the Nextcloud plugins/jails.
I understand cloning a dataset and mounting it as a share for indiv file recovery; I have already done that successfully.
What I don't understand, is whether it is possible, and how best I might try to recover my lost Nextcloud data using the snapshots of the pool.
I saw a snapshot named 'secondpool' auto-2022-12-28_00-00, and I rolled back to that, however, I didn't see the plugins or jails restored. As you can see in the screenshot of my snapshots, there are still 2 snapshots remaining which match up the timestamp 'auto-2022-12-28_00-00'. Not sure if I now just need to do something wth those, or install the plugin again first, etc.
I also have a full set of snapshots from the next day 12/29, with times auto-2022-12-29_14-59. Since I have a full set of these snapshots, maybe these are the ones to use?
Thanks for any help or direction that can be provided.
