Hi Alfredo,

As Peter says, use ipa-backup. I suggest running it twice a day, but 
that depends on how many changes you make in FreeIPA.

Then, get your backup software to backup /var/lib/ipa/backup some time 
after you've run ipa-backup. Or, get your backup software to run 
ipa-backup for you and then back up the destination folder.

It's always easier to restore a system from a full backup, but it takes 
time and demands many full backups which are large in size, demands a 
lot of storage and stresses your network.

I'd run a full backup of the FreeIPA server weekly and incrementals 
twice a day, all of them right after running ipa-backup.
