Every day, Cron runs a bash script to backup the MySQL DB & Mediawiki image files to Beaker, from where we rely on Beaker's cloud backup for longer term storage.

== The Script ==

The canonical location of the script is <code>/root/backup.sh</code>, there is a symlink from <code>/etc/cron.daily/backup.sh</code> (which is how it runs daily)

== Databases ==

The script loops through the databases (except the system DBs 'information_schema', 'performance_schema' & 'archive'), dumps them in SQL format to a tmpfile, and then compresses that file to <code>/mnt/beaker/IT/MySQL_Backups/[DAY OF THE WEEK]/[DATABASE].sql.bz</code>, providing us with an automated one week backlog

== Wiki Uploads ==

The three live wikis (Crew, Plot & Public) also have their image directories backed up to <code>/mnt/beaker/IT/mediawiki-image-backups/</code> by rsync as part of the same script.

== Flaws ==

* Errors go to cron-mail, which I'm fairly sure is a black hole
* Working out which is the most recent backup isn't trivial
* Daily cron tasks happen at 17:45, which isn't a great time to slow the DB down.
