/opt/york/fedora/data contains all the data objects, datastreams and policies. If you are storing any of your actual resource files outside of fedora rather than keeping it all as managed data then you will want to back up that directory too

I'm a pacifist... :) I guess what I'm asking is, which files/directories should I be copying in order to ensure I can easily restore them later, and what's the restore procedure. >From what I've read about the fedora-rebuild command, it looks like it's all I need to fully restore a Fedora repository, as long as I've backed-up the right files, but I'm not sure which these are. thanks, Filipe Correia On Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 2:36 PM, Scott Prater <spra...@doit.wisc.edu> wrote: > The simplest, brute force solution is to use your standard disk backup tools.
