Guest Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Hi, What is the bast way to backup your OSC site files. I know that the backup function in admin just backsup your database, so what I do to backup my site is (within my FTP program) I just download all my store files to my hard drive. But is there a better (faster and maybe more reliable) way to do this? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsharke Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 Most servers such as mine have an archive where you can backup all your files and be there in case you need one or all. Thanks Billy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DELETE_ME Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 A way to do backups would be to script the backup, , I dont have to do this as I have a quantum superloader for my server farm. But if you have access to a shell acount you could create a script that would copy all the files to a archive folder. I would do this for you're database as well , MYSQL can be backed up while the database is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
