The Manual Backup screen in the Hub always listed the Node / Server +
Desktop items (nix-bitcoin secrets, /var/lib system service data, and the
database/blockchain caveat), and the backup script mirrored /var/lib and
counted it in the free-space estimate even on the Desktop Only role.
Desktop Only systems run no server or Bitcoin services and have no
internal second data drive, so none of that applies.
Hub UI (support.js):
- 'What gets backed up' is role-aware: Desktop Only lists only the NixOS
configuration (/etc/nixos) and home directory (/home)
- Database/blockchain note hidden on Desktop Only
- Intro copy corrected: external USB copy is a second location on
Desktop Only (no internal second drive); third-location wording kept
for Node / Server + Desktop
Backup script (sovran-hub-backup.sh):
- Desktop Only runs 2 stages (1/2 /etc/nixos, 2/2 /home); secrets and
/var/lib stages no longer run on that role
- Free-space estimate skips /var/lib on Desktop Only
- BACKUP_MANIFEST.txt sources/exclusions/limitations/restore guidance
and blockchain note are role-aware
- Completion message role-aware ('second, external location' on
Desktop Only); header comments updated
Node and Server + Desktop behavior is unchanged. Added CHANGELOG entry.
Verified: bash -n / node --check, 6 role-detection cases, manifest
generation for both role groups (non-desktop output identical to
before), and simulated UI renders for all three roles.
