Hi Willie, If you want to have backups (point-in-time snapshots) then you'd need something similar to the snapshooter script used in replication. I believe it creates hard links to files of the current index in a new directory marked with the timestamp. You can either use snapshooter itself or create your own script by modifying snapshooter to create copies instead of hardlinks if you want. You can use the RunExecutableListener to run your script on every commit or optimize and use the snapshots for backup purposes.
