Hello All,

I've asked this question on SA list but didn't get answers, so Ill try here.

I thought of disaster recovery backup.
I've read the man pages but still not clear about backing up Bayesian 
DB files (I don't use SQL DB for now).

1) Is the following command is legit?
sa-learn --sync --showdots --backup > backup.txt

Is this command make backup of bayes_seen, bayes_toks, user_prefs, 
auto-whitelist altogether?

2) Should I stop SA(amavisd-new) from running during this backup?

3) Where can I read amore about AWL backup and .mutex files (I'm not 
familiar with those)?
