I have just encountered this problem myself actually. I guess we are
among the first people to start seriously thinking about how to
administer schooltool servers.

Anyway the data is stored inside the Zope Object Database (ZODB)
(normally with the filename Data.fs) and there seem to be three or four 
backup methods. When I had to do it, the repozo.py script carried with
zope 2.8 seemed the best option.

I imagine that schooltool instances should, in future, carry some
scripts to make this very simple. Anyone with ideas on what these
scripts should do?
