Backups

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.

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.
