How to set up Backups

copy of the geonode DB

1. create a shell script that contains the pgdump instructions - see /home/ssteinig/geonode_backup.sh on CedeusDB
2. test if script actually works (using sudo?)
3. create a cron-tab entry for admin/root user using crontab -e

   then add entry such as 00 01 * * * /home/ssteinig/geonode_backup.sh to run the script daily at 1:00 am

   when using the user "postgres" then pg_hba.conf file needs to adjusted to trust local connections. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15359348/run-batch-file-with-psql-command-without-password
