Thanks for the replies both.
I wasn't aware the GWC tiles could be placed elsewhere; I'll have to
investigate that.
We don't actually have anything in our /data directory and the content of
/coverages can be placed anywhere.
I think what I'll end up doing is segregating the remaining data from the
configuration files and then backing up the configs daily using something
like Christian's script.
Cheers,
Jonathan
