Server / Database Backup

Submitted by savo on 2015-12-17

Fantastic tool, thank you for the work!

We are using this for some critical project tracking data storage. It would be a huge set back if something should happen to the Database. The server is running on a VM, I have preformed windows image backups of the environment but I would like to know if another method is preferred. What files would need to be copied if I wanted to duplicate the settings and database information. I want to be 100% sure I can stand this up on a new VM should something crash or become corrupt.

Thanks for the help !!

You should backup the entire database using the backup tools provided by your database. You should also backup the data subdirectory of the server.
