Help Deleted Nextcloud AIO Watch Tower Container

I recently did a docker system prune. After I realized that the NextCloud AIO watch tower container was set to stop and the prune removed the container. I’ve since tried updating the docker container however that didn’t seem to work. Is there a way to get the watch tower container back as there doesn’t seem to be an option in the AIO interface. I did try removing the containers and rerunning the stack.

Hi, updating the aio containers is done like this: see GitHub - nextcloud/all-in-one: 📦 The official Nextcloud installation method. Provides easy deployment and maintenance with most features included in this one Nextcloud instance.

Yes, I understand how to update the container. And I’ve already done this my concern is that the container nextcloud/aio-watchtower is no longer there. This container was stopped. I did a network prune and didn’t realize it was stopped until a few days later and my backups had over written the one I needed.
My question is, nextcloud/aio-watchtower needed? I’m assuming this is how the notifications are managed? I’m assuming I can still run the updates for the containers but will no longer be notified?

Is there a way to get that container back without have to rebuild the whole docker container. I’ve already tried re-run the docker stack but that did not resolve the issue.

The watchtower container will automatically be recreated as soon as it is needed again. So nothing to worry about.

Awesome thank you sir! That is what I thought I figured the scripting for it was in the AIO master container. But was just lookign for some clarification or confirmation before I through my self down a rabbit hole trying to correct it.
