I'm not sure how umbrel works but you might need to manually restore your channel backups. If so, be very careful.

From what I read, there is an 'Automatic Encrypted Backups' for lightning. Let's see if it works when I am fully synchronized.

You should be fine if you have your seed noted down. I had a SSD failure and it worked well (just took a bit of time) - you just need to wait for a full node sync and recover your wallet from the seed.

I updated Umbrel to 0.5.3 and the recovery of lightning channels worked with my local backup. I could have used the automatic backup from umbrel as well.
