Backing Up WIN

2010-09-26T11:08:51Z

Dene Sparta: In FullBackup.bat, replaced %OS_Instance%\BACKup%\DBsql\%DBNAME%_%TIMESTAMP%.sql with %OSbackup%\DBsql\%DBNAME%_%TIMESTAMP%.sql

= '''BACKING UP IN WINDOWS''' =

'''This Posting now includes the more complete Automation System for OpenSim '''.

'''SYSTEMS TESTED ON Windows Vista, Windows-7 RC1, Server 2008 r1 (64bit) MySql 5.1 This works will all system up to OpenSim f84da8e - r11604 (November 27,2009)'''

Prior to ANY UPGRADE / UPDATE you need to backup your system !

So here I present a '''BACKUP SCRIPT & RESTORE SCRIPT''' for the Console, along Batch File at the end to complete the process.  This should be used in conjunstion with the [[Smart Prestart WIN]]

This is Comprehensive, as it is better to have all types of backups in case OAR or others fail! (It Happens!)

 

You can copy these command scripts provided into your \BIN Folder.

'''Highly Recomended:''' This System is designed to operated with the following SubStructures to isolate your Backups for Easy Retrieval and archiving. '''SINGLE INSTANCE OF OPENSIM '''
<blockquote>c:\OpenSim <---- Base installation c:\OpenSim\bin <---- the bin Folder c:\OpenSim\BACKups <---- The Backup SubFolder Structure "base/root" (could be anywhere) !! Best to keep it OUT of \bin and it's subfolders c:\OpenSim\BACKups\DB <---- for SqlLite Databases c:\OpenSim\BACKups\DBsql <---- for MySql Databases c:\OpenSim\BACKups\EXPORTS <---- ExportDirectories transfered here c:\OpenSim\BACKups\INI <---- ALL Active INI Files from BIN and SubDirectories c:\OpenSim\BACKups\LOGS <---- Log Files Archived Here for Review c:\OpenSim\BACKups\OAR <---- for OAR Files c:\OpenSim\BACKups\REGIONS <---- Region.XML or INI files copied here c:\OpenSim\BACKups\TERRAINS <---- for r32 Terrain Files c:\OpenSim\BACKups\TXT <---- TXT files used for console scripts copied here c:\OpenSim\BACKups\XML2 <---- for XML2 Files </blockquote>
Note that EXPORTS are saved in \bin\exports by default, as defined in the OpenSim.ini

'''IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE INSTANCES, CHANGE PATHING ACCORDINGLY '''
