Hello all, I want to check to make sure I am backing up Koha correctly. I looked at this reference: http://www.kohadocs.org/Backups_and_Restoring.html It refers to the file structure for an earlier version. I couldn't find anything in the doc at https://sites.google.com/a/liblime.com/koha-manual/ , but maybe I am missing something there. Here is what I came up with: Backup the database using: mysqldump --add-drop-table -u<dbusername> -p<dbpassword> koha > koha.sql I am running multiple databases, and am repeating the above for each unique database name. Backup all of the files in /usr/share/koha . Backup the extra config files in: /etc/koha /etc/apache2 /etc/mysql/my.cnf I am also backing up these as I made changes to them - perhaps unique to my install: /etc/vsftpd.conf /etc/network /etc/hosts I am using cron to run several scripts that do the above, using tar -czf to create compressed files and the copying them to a remote location that also gets backed up to tape every day. As I write this, I am thinking I should add /usr/share/perl5 and /usr/share/perl to the list. Is there anything else needed that won't easily install from a Debian install? My approach on this is to have a backup of all the unique items needed for Koha, so I can do a clean install of Debian with Apache2 and MySQL, then restore from the backups and go. As there will be core items that change depending on the hardware config, I don't think I can just backup the entire debian file system and transfer it to a new machine.
