You are getting it wrong here.....
Plex eco-system contains the following:
- The database
- All your medias
- The library folder, with everything in it
The butler provided database backup is merely there if you have a database corruption, and nothing else!
If you instead are talking about a complete restore after a disk crash/reformat, then you'll need all of the above....
So suggest you start by reading this thread:

Thanks for the response, going forward I believe i'm going to schedule monthly backups of the plex database to ensure integrity in the extreme event something happens where I need to restore it. In my case i'll simply backup the PlexMediaServer directory which for qpkg based plex installations holds all plex data.
