Feel free to pick the backup software of your choice, but know that rsync and similar tools are not backup tools. You could use [restic](https://restic.net/) or [borg](https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/).

### Backup the configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
On common setups, you need to backup the entire `/etc/airtime` folder.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Backup the database
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You need to backup the PostgreSQL database, which holds the entire data of your installation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here is an example to dump your PostgreSQL database:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
sudo -u postgres pg_dump --file=libretime.sql libretime
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please read the `pg_dump` usage for additional details.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Backup the storage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You need to backup the entire file storage, which holds all the files of your installation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The path to your storage was defined during the installation process.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Restore a backup
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Restore the configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Copy the backed configuration files back to the configuration folder.
