How to set up Backups

copy of the geonode DB

  1. create a shell script that contains the pgdump instructions - see /home/ssteinig/geonode_backup.sh on CedeusDB
  2. test if script actually works (using sudo?)
  3. create a cron-tab entry for admin/root user using "crontab -e"
    then add entry such as "00 01 * * * /home/ssteinig/geonode_backup.sh" to run the script daily at 1:00 am
    => when using the user "postgres" then pg_hba.conf file needs to adjusted to trust local connections. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15359348/run-batch-file-with-psql-command-without-password
    => in particular I changed "local all postgres peer" to: "local all postgres md5"
