Wow thanks! 30GB is the free tier so no problem there. Didn't expect the db would be so lean.

Interesting, the DB backup for my M3P covering two years and 25,000 miles just went over 800mb!
Wonder if I've got something wrong somewhere in my setup...
Small fry, 58k miles 2.5 years and my backup is 1.6GB

Teslamate noob, I followed all the instructions to setup on RPI 3B+. I can get on the http://<IP address>:3000 but not on the http://<IP address>:4000, did some searches and the docker is running, restarted the pi a few times, checked the port to ensure it was being occupied... does anyone have any suggestions?

To build on @init6, what software version are you running on the Pi?
I am going to point you proactively to this thread, as I am willing to bet you are facing the issues outlined here. Raspberry Pi: clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, _) failed: Opera...

Another dumb question ... can you run 2 simultaneous instances of Teslamate collecting data from one car? Thinking of setting up a local instance as well as the one I have set up in Google GCP for redundancy. I love my data ...

It is not the worst, you would still have the data in one of two instances. But yeah, most people I imagine only run one logger. I have heard of people running TeslaMate and say TeslaFi or TeslaScope.

I run 2 loggers (TM and TL) and also consume the API for my own automation control, never had any issues

Good thought - I intend on running the Home Assistant api for charging based on PV excess production. Will report back on this if we ever get our car in the forgotten Tesla land called Australia. "No cars for you" - channelling Seinfeld.
Can anyone guide me to manually backing up my entire Teslamate database? As in, copying the whole directory that the data is stored in so that I can later restore it?
I've had Teslamate running on google cloud for a couple of months and was trying to get the google drive backup running. I ran into a couple of different issues and in my effort to figure out how to fix it, I've broken the whole Teslamate install. I have a feeling that my database may still be stored on the cloud, I'm just not sure how to get it off. I've now managed to successfully create a teslamate.bck file, but it is only 38kb, which doesn't seem big enough. It is quite possible the data is already gone, which would be a shame but not the end of the world.
EDIT: I realise someone will probably tell me that manually backing up the database directory will give me exactly the same data (or blank database) that I've already managed to extract, but I wanted to make sure I'd tried everything before I wipe and start afresh.

Can you login to the database directly? That should tell you if the data is still there.
What does
look like?
I get a readout with five lines (database, Grafana, mosquito, proxy, teslmate), all with the status saying that they are 'up'. This sounds like a good thing..?

Much easier for us all if you copy and paste the outputs.
What about logging into the database. Have you tried that?
Sure, here's the output, which I've tried to format but the forum removes the spaces. Thanks for helping.

Both the teslamate landing page and the grafana web service are 404ing from my browser.
You can use the code option to preserve formatting:
