What DumbMonit watches

Built from Duplicati's source code and documentation, not yet tested against a real server. Tell us what your server answers differently. A Duplicati server through its API: the age of each task's last successful backup, its last result, duration, size, warnings and errors, and the task running now.

Examples

  • Duplicati 2.1
  • Duplicati in Docker
  • Duplicati on a NAS

How it connects

What you need

  • Web interface passwordDuplicati has no user accounts: the password of its web interface is all it asks for.

Network ports to open

  • 8200/TCPWeb interface and API (HTTP, default)
Setup steps: Let DumbMonit read the Duplicati API
  1. In the Duplicati web interface, open Settings and set a long random password for the interface: Duplicati 2.1 requires one.

  2. If the server only listens on the machine itself, start it with these options so that DumbMonit can reach it.

    --webservice-interface=any --webservice-allowed-hostnames=*
  3. In DumbMonit, enter the Duplicati address (for example nas.lan) and paste that password.

Heads-up. Duplicati 2.1 or later is required: version 2.0 signs in through a different mechanism that DumbMonit does not use. The password gives full access, so keep port 8200 on your local network.
