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
Warnung
titleBLOBs are critical

If BLOBs are not saved correctly, a restore is not possible – the backup is then useless.

Recommended methods (PostgreSQL)

Info
titleBeware 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.
