GiveALink Maintenance
Backups
There is acron
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
