Hello Thomas, I'm not answering your question, but a while back I though at the same problem: how to backup and restore slide's content. Before I discover that it's enough to backup the txtStore content, I though that I would need to create a tool that would download all content and metainfo in the configured stores, and create a 'proprietary' backup file with that content. I mean proprietary because, there isn't such thing as slide's backup file, or a tool to backup/restore slide's content at runtime (maybe I'm wrong here... I do recall someone talk about this at late 2004).
If you specify and implement this tool, and the file's content, you could include the backup/restore of a single collection as well. Problem with this approach: it must download the content witch can be a problem if it's done at a wrong schedule, that is, it's not very scalable. Hope this helps, Miguel Figueiredo -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Bellembois [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: quarta-feira, 29 de Março de 2006 13:16 To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: Re: How to restore Slide resources ? Hello ! Sorry, I have just noticed that my explanations are not very clear... I will try to re-explain :-) What I wanted to say is that I think that we could save and restore the ENTIRE Slide content and metadata just by saving the content and metadata root path. Usefull if the Slide backend crashes... At the University of Rennes 1 we intend to use a SAN(NAS) for the Slide backend. This SAN makes snapshots everyday of each file/directory so that a user can restore its documents up to 1 week ago. But with Slide, to restore just one part of the tree (for example a user homedir), I am not sure that we could just restore one directory (and attached metadata) and restart the server. Some French universities are waiting for this kind of functionnalities to use Slide in a production use. Hope it is more clear.
