Old Configuration Loaded After Reboot or Power Outage

[seadm]

Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing a strange issue with my OPNsense setup. After a reboot or a power outage, the system sometimes loads an older configuration instead of the most recent one I saved.

I always save my changes via the web interface and don't see any error messages. Still, it seems like OPNsense occasionally falls back to a previous config version.

I'm currently running the latest version of OPNsense, so this shouldn't be a version-related issue.

My questions:

What could be causing this behavior?
Is there a way to check or prevent this from happening?
Should I manually export backups regularly, or is there a better solution?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Stefan
