Off-Server Backup
The off-server backup service handles the periodic backup of the log files and database to an off-server location using
SSH. The four types of off-server backups, configurable from the “Off-Server Backup” page, are outlined below:
Server (Including databases, licences, certificates, and OS configuration)
Not backed up locally. This option backs up the database, licences, security certificates, and Linux settings (e.g. IP
address, DNS, time server settings). May be configured to backup to another server.
Audit Log
Not backed up locally. May be configured to backup to another server.
Database
Backed up locally on a daily basis. Backups are saved for one week. The off-server backup only transfers the most
recent database backup, leaving the local copy in place.
System Logs
Not backed up locally. May be configured to backup to another server.
The configurable settings for each category of backup are identical.
Enabled
Toggles whether or not the type of backup is enabled.
Destination Server
The remote host name or IP address of the server where the backup is made.
Note:
For database backup, this setting will not affect the local backup.
Note:
If there is a reliance on SSH connectivity, then this host name must be exactly the same as specified on SSH in pub-
lic/private keys.
