Jonathan,

helps if you read the entire Email. Me in that case...

This above mentioned data directory has only database connections. 

The file-based data are only few and somewhere else because their update
cycle differs to  the DB and styles. That is done with a similar script that
runs monthly.

The tiles are also in a different directory again, because there is no
update rhythm. There are mostly imagery tiles and when we have new imagery I
cut new tiles and then I back-up.

I suppose this is how most production installations operate and why I keep
these three store types separate. Depending on the size of your stores you
may decide whether it is a good way to separate or not.  Stuffing everything
in one directory back this up and knowing that all is there has its
advantages too.


Cheers

Christian
