[xwiki-users] Incremental Backup
I am using XWiki for managing Knowledge. Now i want to project a backup strategy. First of all i thought about to create a *.rar archive from whole XWiki Enterprise folder which has a amount from 1.5GB. In a batch i copy this rar to another harddrive. The rar archive is about 850MB. and with the windows scheduler i import different batchs for each day another. But a better solution is the incremental backup. Is there any way to make a incremental backup? Because i dont want to have about 10 x 850 MB files for my backup system. Thank you very much in advance for the answers. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Incremental-Backup-tp7580693.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Hi, The XWiki SAS platform team does backup at the mysql level by doing live replication and periodic backups. It sounds like you are using the default HSQL/jetty installation which has some scaling issues and is lacking in administrative tools so it is not recommended for production use. Given what you're doing, I think your solution of backing up the files makes sense. You might consider using a differential compression scheme like rsync or, my personal favorite, zfs snapshots using zfsonlinux. Note that zfsonlinux still has some issues so it's not good for mission critical applications but it powers Livermore National lab's equipment and my /home/ directory.
