- Description
The Tiki backup format is: http://doc.tiki.org/TRIM#make_backup
Todo:
- Set up backup server (could be using a *.tiki.org domain name)
- Nelson to provide a script for Marc to run on a cron job on each *.tiki.org sites that he is hosting.
- For security reasons, could be a good thing that this backup script can add only (and thus, that a compromised server can't be used to erase all our data)
- For the other servers managed by leu, changi and oliver, give them the same script or use an alternate method which provides the same result.
- Provide access to those backups to Jonny and LPH as they are needed to solve dogfood bugs, and they are great for performance testing.
If the script fails, there should be an alert to the Monitoring system (the community one managed by Tiki). So the script should signal some sort of success to Shinken instance we have.
