Hey,
I was wondering if the way backups are managed with gnuhealth-control
could be improved.
Currently there are three archives generated from:
- database
- home directory
- database & home directory together
First of all we could consider differentiating application and database
as those could be on different systems. Thus we could split the option
"backup" into "backup-database" and "backup-application".
Regarding the backup of the application I think we should not just copy
the home directory and every python library. What I guess is necessary
to backup is:
- Server version
- List of activated modules (how to get this?)
- Attachment folder
- Configuration file(s)
What could be useful as well:
- OS version
- pip freeze
- systemd file
What do you think about it?
Best
Gerald
