You can use Rivendell to automate MySQL backups but I'm an old fogey
when it comes to MySQL and I do this:
#!/bin/bash
#Backup MySQL and copy somewhere
mysqldump --compress -u rduser -pletmein Rivendell | gzip -c9 >
~/backups/rivendell.`date +"%Y-%m-%d`.gz
With a bit of mount point or scp magic you can copy this zipped sql dump
to somewhere safe. Then just add the script to cron:
15 21 * * * /home/rduser/scripts/backup_database.sh
Having standard MySQL and a directory with all the audio in was one of
the major deciding factors in us switching to Riv a few years ago now.

Supposedly this was to be fixed in RD 2.x but another foreign language
station found that when they add symbols or accents to event names
that it wipes out the clock events almost across the board. Weird. I
had a "+" in one name and it wiped the events. Removing it restored it
all. Whew... would have been a lot of work to restore all the clocks.
