Sample backup process with default settings.
Note
🤓 Before running your first backup, please have a look at Backup configuration.
In general, running a Zammad backup is as simple as running
$ /opt/zammad/contrib/backup/zammad_backup.sh
Please make sure to test the backup function manually with the user you’re planning the backup first. This ensures that your backup really is running as expected.
- Remarks
- The backup script can be either run as
zammad
orroot
user.Stopping Zammad is not required (but suggested) technically, but may be in your use case!(Keep in mind that a running Zammad instance keeps changing data which may be an issue during long backup runs)
