GiveALink Maintenance

Backups

There is a cron job running on Smithers that automatically backs up the wiki (that is, the contents of /l/cnets/www/GAL) and the givealink_production mysql database on Smithers. This backup happens once a week, at midnight on Sunday. Dumps are stored in MDSS and given a suffix indicating the date on which they were created. The script implementing this is scripts/backup_database_and_wiki_cronjob.py
