To back up the Aspera Shares web application and accompanying database, run the following script as root. The script stops Aspera Shares services, backs up all necessary files, and restarts Aspera Shares. You cannot use this procedure with earlier versions of Aspera Shares.
# /opt/aspera/shares/u/setup/bin/backup /your_backup_dir
For example:
# /opt/aspera/shares/u/setup/bin/backup /tmp Creating backup directory /tmp/20130627025459 ... Checking status of aspera-shares ... Status is running mysqld is alive Backing up the Shares database and config files ... Backing up the SSL certificates ... Done
Make a note of the ID of the created backup directory, in this example: 20130627025459.
