Markus Jelsma commented on NUTCH-1180:
--------------------------------------
Config directive:
{code}
<property>
<name>db.preserve.backup</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>If true, updatedb will keep a backup of the previous CrawlDB
version in the old directory. In case of disaster, one can rename old to
current and restore the CrawlDB to its previous state.

</property>
{code}
Fine? Wrong?
