Hello all, I'm currently working on our Magnolia backup strategy using the Magnolia Backup module [0]. We would like to be able to restore a dump from one DTAP environment [1] to another, mainly from the production environment to the acceptance test environment. (We might also want to restore to a development environment for instance to debug a problem with a particular set of content.) We'll want to do this every 1-2 weeks to keep the content in our acceptance test environment current.
The restore procedure [2] looks fairly complicated and involves quite a number of manual steps. I'll look at automating this as much as possible for our setup, but I'm wondering what steps need to be carried out to be able to restore a dump from a production environment to another environment. We have magnolia.properties files outside of the web application directory, but apart from that I guess maybe some information in repoConf.zip might also have to be changed when restoring to a different environment? If someone has done restores to different environments before or if you know about the way these dumps work, I'd like to hear your experiences. Is this even possible at all? Nils.
