@Oleg: Hi. I am trying to use the Periodoc Backup Plugin, and it suffers from an issue noted here - it creates a .zip file, but when the .zip file is restored, it has followed the symlinks for lastBuild, lastStableBuild, etc to the associated directories, and these former symlinks are restored a real directories, not symlinks. Subsequent builds shows errors in the logs as they cannot update what shoul dbe symlinks instead of directories. If I just use Windows explorer and copy the .jenkins structure to a new disk, as a back up, then during the Windows copy, it refuses to copy the symlink files, so the symlinks are missing in this case (and the next build creates them). I am just noting these results here, I am mot wishing to re-open this particular Jenkins issue (improvement )here, since I belive it to be working as designed - Jenkins has chosen to use these symlinks, and it is up to any tools such as backup to work correctly with the implementation. I will be opening this issue against the Periodic Backup plugin. Until that is fixed, I will look into the robocopy tool Kevin has suggested.
