Hi all !

What is a good strategy to backup a production server running Galaxy with 2 Postgres databases (1 for workflows and the other for tool shed).

I am now backing up the main installation directory, shed_tools dir, galaxy_data and reference_files. Separately I'm also backing up the Postgres databases.

However .... are there any best practices that anyone could share, or perhaps a script that can help automate the entire backup process? For instance, do I need to run some clean up scripts prior to backup so I don't backup deleted datasets?

Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks !

CL
