Upgrading a self-hosted NetBird server without dropping peers
Upgrading my selfhosted NetBird server is pull, recreate, check. The real risk was having no backup, so a weekly timer takes an online SQLite backup, verifies it and alerts on failure. After an upgrade I check for a 200 and a 401, remove orphaned proxy peers, and VACUUM monthly.
