Backup Strategy -- Need Advice

posts: 3665 United States

What is the backup strategy employed by large Tikis (such as tw.o)? I have a CRON job that does a weekly SQL dump, but files are averaging more than 8MB (gzipped).

I tried to perform a test recovery, and MySQL timed out. I've increased the execution limit in the PHP.INI file, but still no go. sad

How are other Tiki Admins handling backup/recovery? Is there a way, when dumping my database, to make multiple files of smaller size?

Tx,

Has anyone succesfully restored a large (4+ MB) Tiki backup?

If so, how?
