## SVN

**Note:** should probably do a full backup monthly followed by incremental backups daily.

### Core/Extra Repos

*   Server: gerolde
*   Backup commands:

```
svnadmin hotcopy /srv/svn-packages/ svn-packages --clean-logs
svnadmin verify --quiet svn-packages
tar -czf svn-packages.tar.gz svn-packages
rm -rf svn-packages

```

*   Size needed: 4GB (estimated)

### Community Repos

*   Server: sigurd (could be done using rsync copy on gerolde)
*   Backup commands:

```
svnadmin hotcopy /srv/svn-packages/ svn-community --clean-logs
svnadmin verify --quiet svn-community 
tar -czf svn-packages.tar.gz svn-community
rm -rf svn-community

```

*   Size needed: 1.1GB

## System files

### Gerolde

*   Server: gerolde
*   Backup commands:

```
tar czf system-gerolde.tar.gz /etc /var/log /var/lib/pacman/local

```

*   Size needed: 170MB

### Gudrun

*   Server: gudrun
*   Backup commands:

```
tar -cz --exclude=/var/log/httpd/*access* -f system-gudrun.tar.gz /etc /var/log /var/lib/pacman/local

```

*   Size needed: 20MB

### Sigurd

*   Server: sigurd
*   Backup commands:

```
tar -cz --exclude=/var/log/lighttpd/aur-access* -f system-sigurd.tar.gz /etc /var/log /var/lib/pacman/local

```

*   Size needed: 11M

## AUR

For now:

*   Server: sigurd
*   Backup commands:

```
time=`date +%Y%m%d-%H%M`
mysqldump -uaur -pxxx aur | gzip -c > aur-$time.sql.gz
/srv/http/aur.archlinux.org/aur/scripts/cleanup /srv/http/aur.archlinux.org/aur/web
tar czf aur-files-$time.tar.gz /srv/http/aur.archlinux.org

```

I'd like to make a script for dumping the DB which will grab the DB/username/passwd from the AUR config file, so we do not have those things spread all over the place.
