The recommended backup strategy for a production sit is to use an automated script which first backs up the database to a file in /var/lib/aolserver/ and then backs up all of $OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/database-backup/var/lib/aolserver/ to a single zip file, and then copies that zip file to another computer.$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME
Make sure that the manual backup process described above works.
-Customize the default backup script. Edit /var/lib/aolserver/ with your specific parameters.$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/etc/backup.sh
- Make sure the file is executable:
-chmod +x backup.sh-
- Set this file to run automatically by adding a line to root's crontab. (Typically, with export EDITOR=emacs; crontab -e.) This example runs the backup script at 1:30 am every day.
