Re: [Zope] automated object exporting

I have a Zope object (a Plone site, to be specific) that I would like to have exported on a regular basis so I can back it up to another server. While I am familiar with Python, I'm not familiar with the specific methods involved in interacting with Zope for this. How would I go about doing this?

I think you don't have to be familiar with anything specific for Zope. Simply backup <Zope instance>/var/data.fs file (or data.fs in ZEO server if you're using one). As the others already said you may do it with cron and some bash scripts. If you need to backup only some portions of your's ZODB then you'll have to deal with Zope export features. You may also think about something like zsyncer. -- Maciej Wisniowski
