gm-backup_database - complete backup of GNUmed database
gm-backup_database
The gm-backup_database script creates a backup of the database schema, data, and roles which can be used to restore a GNUmed database from scratch.
It is a really good idea to use it in a daily cron/anacron job to ensure that GNUmed patient data are safe against data loss. The Debian GNU/Linux packaged version of the GNUmed server installs such a cron job by default.
It is recommended to use gm-backup instead.
