Hi,
I'd like to schedule periodic backup for our mailman3 instance. Are there recommended ways for doing this without down times?
I should have precised that our mailman3 instance is dockerized. Then, as I understand it, these backups should be sufficient:
- MailmanCore's volume (/opt/mailman/var folder)
/opt/mailman/core/var
- Database dump
Anything else?
No, that should be enough. Mailman-web is fairly stateless and stores everything except the settings and logs in the database. If you have settings version controlled then you don't need anything else. There is also fulltext_index, but that doesn't need to be backed up because it can be easy re-generated with a single django-admin command.
I don't know django. Would you mind giving some pointers about this django-admin command to re-regenerate fulltext_index?
Mailman core's entire state is in the var/ directory above.
Ack. Thanks,
