User Data BackupΒΆ
UForge also stores information that is uploaded by the users of the platform. These are:
- packages, binaries and files that are uploaded in
My Software
orProjects
- images (photos, appliance logos etc)
- boot scripts
- licenses (attached to projects and
My Software
)- UForge Studio packages
All this information is stored in the following directory: /tmp/USER_DATA
Like the database, this is important information that must be backed up on a regular basis. The same mechanism can be used for back up as the database, namely using rsync as highlighted in UForge Database Basic Backup, or disk mirroring (RAID), or both.
