backup script are in /root/scripts
backup_svn_incremental.sh runs every 3 hours and only dumps what has changed in the repository in the last three hours to /home/back/svn_backup/project/incremental
backup-svn_full.sh runs once a day at 1 am and does a 'svnadmin hotcopy' of the repository in /home/back/svn_backup/project/full. 14 copies of the repository are kept.
When adding a new svn repository, make sure to edit both the _full and _incremental scripts to add backups for your projects. You will also have to create the /home/back/svn_backup/project/{full,incremental} directories or the scripts will not work. rsync_back rsyncs www.osgeo.org/home/back with test.osgeo.net/home/back (the second PEER1 server)
Daily PEER1 Backup
PEER1 hosting service is doing daily tape backup of entire system using their SANS infrastructure.
- This is a service we pay for on both osgeo1 and osgeo2. Do we need it on both?
- At present it is backing up the complete file systems on both servers. We must provide them some direction as to the folders to include or exclude, so we maintain a reasonable sized backup. We then send them the list through their support ticket system.
Backup Folders / Files
Please list locations to be backed up here, preferably the same on both servers. Unless we feel we can drop the service on one of them.
- /etc - 10MB
- /var/www/trac - 550MB
Mysql
MySQL is being backed up using MySQL-zrm
osgeo2 (test.osgeo.net)
- Daily PEER1 Backup above also applies
download.osgeo.org
As noted in Download Server the contents of download.osgeo.org are rsync'ed to osgeo2.
