Making backups of your configuration files and data is essential. There are two basic types of data that need to be backed up.
- Local Files - These include your region files and configuration files.
- Database - This is all the data in your database. This assumes that you have control over your grid/standalone.
If necessary, you can also back up regions by using OpenSim Archives (OARs) and inventory using Inventory Archives. If you don't run your own grid, then this is a way to back up your data locally.
