[Opensim-users] backups

[Wayne]

Hi Vanish,

I'm running 40 regions from my home server connected to osgrid. Using
Windows 7 64-bit 4gb ram.  I have a 1tb external hard drive.

I have many many hours of builds on each of these regions and and I'm not
sure what to back up.  Is it safe to just have a scheduled version backup
that copies the entire opensim directory or do I need to keep creating oar
and r32 files? Right now, this is working but takes hours to restore.

Any advice would be appreciated.
