=== Using borg for backups ===
Following Immichs [https://immich.app/docs/administration/backup-and-restore/ backup docs] and [https://immich.app/docs/guides/template-backup-script backup script] an automated backup using [[Borg backup]] could look something like this:
{{File|3=services.borgbackup.jobs."Immich" = {
  paths = "/var/lib/immich";
  repo = "<path-to-borg-repo>";
  startAt = "Sat 04:00";
  compression = "zstd";
  encryption.mode = "none";
  prune.keep = {
    last = 2;
  };
};|name=/etc/nixos/configuration.nix|lang=nix}}
Make sure to manually create a borg repo at the desired location beforehand with <code>sudo borg init --encryption=none <path-to-borg-repo</code>

=== Immich server too old on NixOS stable ===
If you encounter errors like <code>Error processing stream</code> or <code>Error in runInIsolateGentle for remote-sync</code> on Android/iOS clients, the cause may be that the Immich server version packaged in <code>nixos-stable</code> is behind the mobile apps. 
You can use the Immich package from <code>nixos-unstable</code> while keeping the rest of your system on stable. Add the following to the top of your <code>/etc/nixos/configuration.nix</code>: 
<syntaxhighlight lang="nix" line>
let
  unstableTarball = fetchTarball "https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/nixos-unstable.tar.gz";
in {
  nixpkgs.config = {
    packageOverrides = pkgs: {
      unstable = import unstableTarball {
        config = config.nixpkgs.config;
      };
    };
  };
}
</syntaxhighlight>
Then override the Immich package in your service config: 
<syntaxhighlight lang="nix" line>
services.immich.package = pkgs.unstable.immich;
</syntaxhighlight>
