A backup should go without saying – both the database and the application (which holds document attachments, among others) must be backed up.
Database backup
It is crucial that BLOBs are saved correctly. BLOBs contain, among others:
- header for checking the database version (GZIP binary)
- image components
- state model layouts

|
If BLOBs are not saved correctly, a restore is not possible – the backup is then useless. |
Recommended methods (PostgreSQL)

| title | Beware Navicat/Linux |
|---|
|
The database front-end Navicat Premium saves BLOBs incorrectly on Linux (bug) – such backups are unusable. The macOS version works correctly. |
Test the restore
Test every backup method with an actual restore – only then is it guaranteed that the backup can be applied correctly.
