Backup of geonode

>> return to Cedeus IDE

---

Backup procedure taken from: http://docs.geonode.org/en/latest/deploy/backup.html

GeoNode Server (with GeoNode 2.0c8):

1. Backup Geonode users DB (psql needs to be running)
   • sudo -u postgres -i pg_dump -c -Fc geonode > /home/ssteinig/geonodedb.backup
2. Stop services
   • sudo service apache2 stop
   • sudo service tomcat7 stop
   • sudo postgresql-8.4 stop o: sudo service postgresql stop (I am actually running PSQL 9.1.11 on cedeusgis1)
3. Backup Geonode config & GeoServer data directory:
   • sudo tar -cvzf /home/ssteinig/geonodeConfigBackup.tgz /etc/geonode
   • sudo tar -cvzf /home/ssteinig/geonodeDataBackup.tgz /var/lib/geoserver/geonode-data/
4. In addition, any templates, design changes, and/or CSS files will also need to be captured.
   • e.g. my modified css and logo have been in /etc/geonode/media/geonode/img/ ... so they should be backed-up within the config tgz file.
   • but my text modifications to the start pages (i18n strings) are in a different location (...perhaps I should save the whole package?)
     • sudo tar -cvzf /home/ssteinig/geonodei18nBackup.tgz /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/geonode/locale/
   • just to be save I may also do a backup of the GeoNode web folder where I have the CSS:
     • sudo tar -cvzf /home/ssteinig/geonodeWWWBackup.tgz /var/www/geonode/
5. re-start the previously stopped services: Apache2, Tomcat7, PSQL

DB Server:
