Backing up/Restoring a site using Gladius flat text database
24 November 2007 15:04

Hi, I am a bit uncertain of how to handle this issue.
Drake CMS admin has a feature of backing of the site into a
tar.gz packege. How is it implemented for the Gladius DB. I
presume it is not.
How can then one make security
backups for a site using Gladius DB. Should one simply copy all
the files?
This issue seems somehw related to
migration, because if a Gladius DB could be retored, than this
could be a part of migration, as
- installing a new
site - replacing some key folders - updating the
private/config.php file - restoring the Gladius DB
Thanks.

Hi and Welcome
You can do a normal SQL backup of
Gladius or SQLite.
or
When you select the
tarball backup feature the Gladius DB or SQLite files are backed
up as part of the tarball
You also have the option to
include a SQL backup, but as the DB is backed up as part of the
tarball it is not needed.
Hope this helps.

It's like any other database system, you just make the SQL backup
and then restore it remotely
