How to backup/restore the repository?

[Laurent Trillaud <lt...@jouve.fr>]

Hi
AFAIK, I see nothing about the backup / restore of the repository in the 
documentation, the wiki or the FAQ.
Therefore, I deduce that the backup / restore is a repository concern, 
i.e. use the tool of the selected repository : Filesystem, MySQL, etc.
If yes, the next question is : Is slide support hot backup / restore 
(without stop slide)?

Yes, that works. If you're using a database store, backup your database 
with your database tools. If you're using the file store, backup the 
directories where it's configured to store the files. Or both if you're 
mixing store types.

It should be nice, but with the current release how can I do backup / 
restore?
If I stop tomcat, backup the filesystem or the database and restart 
tomcat, is my backup integrity ok?
Can I restore it, with the same way by stoping tomcat?

No, there's no such a tool. But it's in my todo list ;-)
A tool like that is needed not only for safekeeping but also to be able 
to migrate from one store type to another, or from one slide version to 
another if the internal schema changed.

Although I haven't even started working on it, one thing for sure, 
either the slide client library (most probably) or a client working at 
the slide API level will be used, which means it will have to be an 
online backup.

This brings me some questions, how to assure consistency during a hot 
backup?, for example if files are added/removed in the middle of the 
process.
