    Hi there :-)

    Finally got everything set up with Jellyfin running as an app in TrueNAS (BeeLink ME Mini) and my library residing in a 100TB Synology NFS folder, and it actually runs really well.
    However, it took a while to get things tweaked (also in terms of fixing bad metadata scrapes/images), so I really want back things up properly from here on.

    But I'm not very well versed in how to do this in TrueNAS, so could anyone tell me how to do this effectively?
    In TrueNAS I made dedicated config+cache datasets for Jellyfin, where all metadata and images reside.
    Do I back this up separately, or through Jellyfin in some way?
    And in the case of things going south and I have to restore from a fresh Jellyfin install, how do I ensure everything comes back as it should?
    Is snapshots in TrueNAS a way to do any of this? 

    Thanx from a total novice :-)
