it should start a parameterized preconfigured script, which the admin could modify. the parameters should be in the server rc file the same or a similar script should be run from cron to do the "professional" backup why let/ask all the admins to reinvent the wheel. -- If an external filestore is used for document management, database backup does not include the backup of the attachments https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of C2C OERPScenario, which is subscribed to the OpenERP Project Group. Status in OpenObject Server: Opinion Bug description: attachments are stored in openobject-server/bin/filestore/<dbname> a backup just takes a copy of the database content , not of the attachments so the cylce backup/restore looses data. especially tricky if postgres-db and openerp-server run on different computers. absolute minimum requirement is to add this information to the backup menu * Backup Database (without attachments) * Restore Database (without attachments) help="Attachments are stored in openobject-server/bin/filestore/<dbname> and must be backuped separately" a better solution would be of course to include the attachments in the backup/restore process (which IMHO has to be redesigned to use a storage location on the server and avoid transfer of mass data to and from the client.) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
