I have to come back on this the new book "Drive your Sales ..." describes the backup / restore process of the db - without mentioning that all attachment in filestore are NOT included.
although it mentiones in chapter 9.3 that the attachments may not be stored in the db. IMHO this should be mentioned as text comment in the popup of database backup. So at least people will know ..... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of C2C OERPScenario, which is subscribed to the OpenERP Project Group. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478186 Title: If an external filestore is used for document management, database backup does not include the backup of the attachments Status in OpenERP 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
