Generally this is your weewx.sdb file and possibly your NOAA files, which aren't written often. The rsync handler is nice if you have another computer with spinning disk to just copy your web docroot to, but you'll definitely want to save your weewx database file periodically. If you have a Davis station with datalogger, you only 'technically' have to do this weekly or so probably, but nightly at minimum is probably a good idea. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
